Love Those Street Fairs!



Union Street Fair is on this weekend, right now, and I love, love going to these festivals! They're alive and lively, attracting over hundred thousand people from all over town, including tourists from all over the world. A fun way to spend the day or the weekend! Even dogs have their day on festivals like this. With over a hundred boutiques featuring works by artists from different parts of the country in clothing, jewelry, painting, photography and many more, live music, food and drinks - it's live entertainment! Great ambiance!

And feels like summer, too! Remember what I told you about getting dressed for summer? Don't get fooled, though. It doesn't take far and long to feel cold and chilly in this city. My mother-in-law used to tell everyone to always bring a jacket in San Francisco,"You can feel warm when you walk out the door and 3 blocks later, it's freezing cold!"
Yup, only 3 blocks, and not 3 hours later, either. And Norman always says you can always tell the tourists in the city. They wear tank tops, thinking it's hot here as in California hot, "Then they come out of Fisherman's Wharf wearing jogging suits they just bought."

San Francisco, I love, love the city and the streets! Now don't forget the popular boutiques and restaurants on the city's famed Victorians' fashionable Union Street itself. It's a gorgeous stretch of a street!
