Well I'm back from the States. It was interesting to see Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge etc. For anyone with the game GTA-San Andreas, San Francisco looks 90% like San Fierro. It is unbelieveably hilly, with some extreme slopes. It also rained a lot, and the hotel we stayed in wasnt up to much. It was a long 11 hour flight, and I suffered badly with jet lag. I have just about got my biological clock set even though I have been back over a week.

 

I recommend it to anyone, theres enough sights, sounds, restaurants and the like to enjoy. Alcatraz is a must, Haight and Aylesbury is very good for a bit of alternative shopping, its a bit of a hippy area with loads of cool shops. I would say 4 days is probably enough, but the flight is so long you would have to do a tour of the west coast to make up for it.
