Opera in the park
May 29, 2005




All packed & ready to go for a musical picnic in San Francisco.




Destination: Yerba Buena Gardens in downtown SF.




I setup camp, soon joined by the Molins.




Ulrika, Linn




trying one of those foldable seats




Suddenly, everybody stands for the national anthem.




Linn too




the music starts, lots of "schönen" opera




surrounded by skyscrapers




the San Francisco Opera on stage














Two hours later, it's over; the soloists take a bow




Someone's tired, time to head back...




...to the hotel for Linns' dinner.




Next; straight north along Taylor, passing by Grace Cathedral.



















The Nob Hill Café offers Italian delicacies.




a creamy pesto for me




view




a peek inside the cable car power house




there appears to be a Swedish drill




a scene along Columbus




few Swedes can resist an ice cream stop
