Hello there, I'm 
After disembarking from the ferry, we were greeted with a beautiful gate, and a nice building close by. It was a very beautiful day to be outside. The breeze is cold, but the sun is warm so it evens out to a very comfortable temperature.
I saw a few tables with umbrellas along the way towards the SF Ferry Building. I'm not sure if there are small food stalls further out, but there were some people chilling in the area.
We walked at the side of the building. On one side were a bunch of restaurants that already had a lot of customers. On the other was a very beautiful view of the sea, Treasure Island, and Bay Bridge. There were also a bunch birds waiting for scraps or leftovers to get.
The inside of the building is very pretty. Apart from the restaurants, there were also a lot of unique stores that sell interesting objects. We saw some special chocolates, some truffles, stores selling olive oil, mushrooms. My brother-in-law even bought porcini pasta.
One of our stops in the SF Ferry Building was the Fort Point Beer. Since my companions really like beer, this is where we had our morning snack. We ordered the Green Goddess Dip and a few beers. We chilled here for a while and talked about the different items in the building. My brother in law was excited to try the pasta with the meatball sauce he has at home.
Their water is near the colored wall. When I went to get some, I was surprised that they were actually colored cans of beer. I guess that is a unique way of recycling old cans. After a while, we decided it was time to head out and walk towards the BART station.
The other side of the Ferry Building was pretty interesting too. I can see the iconic buildings more closely.
I also appreciate the numerous trees that are around us. Even though it is a very modern and urban place, having nature around with all the greenery is still nice.
The clocktower of the Ferry Building is also more noticeable in this area. I like the mix of modern and slightly traditional feel it evokes.
As we were walking away from the Ferry Building and towards the BART station, I can't help but look back and take a last photo of the building to appreciate its simple beauty.
I know the locals and a lot of people that see it everyday tend to dismiss it as part of their daily life. But sometimes you got to appreciate the little things.
Along the way we passed by a large open space, maybe a plaza, with a cool artistic structure. The photo is a bit grainy since it wasn't that close, and we wanted to make it to the next train schedule so there wasn't much time to go closer.
I took a photo of this old school looking bus/train/tram. What's cool about it is that it is still using the train tracks on the ground, and if you look closer, it is connected to the wires above it. I don't know how old these are, but I think they are well maintained.
There was another train/tram, but this one looks like it's for tourists. This one looks similar to the ones I've seen in the movies. The other one looks like it is still being used by the locals/public. I wasn't able to ride this, but it might be nice to try it in the future.
There were also some informational pieces near the BART station. I have heard of the name Robert Frost, but I wasn't familiar with what he was famous for. It's pretty cool that SF celebrates their artists this way.
Before heading down to the BART station saw these cool looking clock and some sort of advertising thing. I am thinking that these are old pieces, and I can imagine how newspaper headlines were placed inside.
The SF BART is pretty simple, and looked very similar to a typical train/subway. What's different from what I'm used to is that they have seats that face forward and backward, instead of just all to the side. I think it's more comfortable, and better when you're in a group. I do think that it takes up a lot more space.
I do have to admit that their train/BART station is definitely better looking than ours. Outside the station I also saw a more modern version of the bus, which I think also looks pretty cool. It says it has zero emmissions so that's good for the environment.
I will end here for now. In my next post I will write about our lunch in Cellarmaker, but I think I will have to put it in the Foodies community, since it is more food related. I hope you continue to enjoy joining me in this journey, and see you next time.
