Summer in San Francisco, CA 94112: Week 20/21

"A weekend ride in 'n out of San Francisco (Part I)

Presidio, San Francisco.
"Presido, San Francisco"

On the first weekend of August I have made the decission to rent a car thru Alamo. Due to a special agreement between them and my employer I used the company rate to get benefits you normally have to pay for. However you should have at least a CDW ("Collision Damage Waver") and a insurance like an "Extended Protection (an optional insurance protection provides the renter and authorized drivers with third party liability protection).
First station is the Golden Gate National Cemetery - a place where more than hundred of thousands people are buried. It's a huge area. Therefore you can access that cemetry by car and driving around it. After lunch (having a footlong sub with roasted ham by the way) the race went on. Next destination: driving along western area of San Francisco / Ocean Beach and passing by the Golden Gate Park in the west. Once I arrived at Presidio District the gorgeous beauty of all these mansions in that pretty neat and nice neighbourhood overcomes one. The trip goes on and as not far as 2 miles you can enjoy the summer at China Beach - a less crowded spot but in my eyes as less attractive than Ocean Beach though. That Presidio isn't bad at all is shown by the fact that can have a look at the Golden Gate Bridge while playing a match on the golf course.
Back on road the last part of this day trip is an abandoned neighbourhood of old-style houses. It looks that this place has formerly been a military property but now it is accessibly to everybody. And sometimes somebody takes the chance to play a short match on it.
