Random Things in San Francisco #2

 Random Things in San Francisco #2

Here are some more random things spotted during our daily walks in the City by the Bay.

Many of our walks follow the Embarcadero, the street that runs along San Francisco Bay.  As a result, we see all sorts of random things with a marine theme.  

In San Francisco, we see plenty of wildlife, both the human kind and the natural kind.  Below is a not-so-good photo of some natural wildlife--a large sea lion napping on the dock next to a boat in the marina.


Where do we live in San Francisco?  Apparently, we live in a tsunami hazard zone.  Who knew?  Check it out.  


Fortunately, we live on the 20th floor.  

One day, we were walking along the Embarcadero and spotted some commotion at the Ferry Terminal.  There were lots of police cars and officers, a fire truck, an ambulance, a fire boat and even a small boat with divers.


It turns out that some dude thought it would be a good idea to climb on the roof over the ferry dock.  He intermittently danced, sat down and talked to the police.  We watched for quite awhile as other spectators gathered and ultimately walked away.  Apparently, the episode ended without incident.
