We got up to explore the neighborhood, get our walk and possibly some brunch. Thanks again to Mark and Russell for the place to stay. It was really nice and relaxing to be able to leave at our leisure. Nob Hill is a mix of old and new. The new stuff imitates the old in many cases.

I don't know if this is intentional, but other than the restaurant seating, this scene looks period.

This photo by Ernst Haas was taken in 1969....
I remember seeing this photo many times in the past. This one was hanging up in a shop and the color was adjusted. Here is the original...
So, I decided to try to take a current picture from the same position. I don't know if I was successful.
Things have changed.

We didn't get to spend too much time on Nob Hill. We will come back. It was getting late and we wanted a full day at home to rest up. So we had to leave and finally start heading east. On the way, we planned to visit some places we missed on the way out.
