San Francisco Quote of the Day: the skyline
Words worth reading about San Francisco crop in the most interesting of places. Sure, there are typical spots that you’d expect good writing to be found like in literature and lyrics. But sometimes the good writers are out there in other places, like doing travel writing on the web. In this case, the quotes are from Fodor’s Travel Guide for San Francisco.
First, in describing the city’s “jaw-dropping views”, they aptly and beautifully write:
“In San Francisco, it’s almost impossible not to happen upon jaw-dropping views of the city and the bay beyond. You can see them from Fisherman’s Wharf, Coit Tower, and just clattering down the cable-car tracks.”
When getting more specific about the views, they come up with this gem of truth:
“Close to sunset, folks begin pulling over on the shoulder along Grizzly Peak Boulevard in the Berkeley hills, waiting for the show to begin. Watching the sun descend slowly beyond the San Francisco skyline is spectacular, surpassed only by the gradual glow as the city lights come up.”
