After a great tea at
Crown & Crumpet (see previous post), we walked down to Fisherman's Wharf, amidst all the tourists. It had been a while since we've done that and it was remarkably fun! There was a ton of energy, lots of street performers, horse-drawn carriages and people taking photos.
We made a stop at In-n-Out on the Wharf for some french fries (to counteract the sugar?! again, see previous posts about love of
french fries) and then walked over to the
Musee Mechanique. This is a small private museum filled with little modern and antique amusement park machines that used to be located at the by the Sutro Baths on Highway 1. The new location on the wharf is equally scenic but the warehouse decidedly lacks at atmosphere. We put lots of quarters into skee ball, fortune telling, a sticker photo booth and a mechanical fun fair that comes to life. Then we watched the sunset over the Bay.
Finally we finished up with clam chowder in a bread bowl at the new and fancy Boudin bakery - we ate in the cafe area (not the upstairs restaurant) and their grilled cheese served with tomato soup was a wonderful end to the day.
