Leaving San Francisco

Our final day in San Francisco.

We were able to stay in our apartment till 3pm, the train wasn't till 9.45pm. I think that when we travel we really need to do it early in the morning otherwise we just end up wasting a day.  We were at the train station 3 hours early.  Plus the train was late.  4 hours early.

San Francisco doesn't have a train station as such as it is on an island so you have to travel outside the city to get a train. We were catching a train from Oakland.  San Francisco has an excellent bus network, unless you have lots of bags in which case it is a bit of a squeeze. I use any excuse I can to get a boat....  perfect way to leave such a great city.

Eventually boarded the Coastal Starlight Sleeper Train at 10.45pm to take us on the 23 hour journey to Seattle.  A trip highlight.
