San Francisco - February 7, 2015

Our return trip was three days.  We spent a lot of the time during the days reading in the Skywalkers Lounge, which is the structure high above the stern of the ship.  It's reached by a ramp and moving walkway.

This shot shows where Skywalkers is.

 

On the fourth day we sailed under the Golden Gate Bridge at 5:45 a.m. after a rough and rocky night.  Right behind us the Queen Elizabeth arrived at Pier 35.

We left the ship at 10:00 and walked to Dan and Liz's apartment.  We had lunch with them, then walked downtown with Dan for tea at Samovar.  We met up with Liz again and had a nice dinner at an Italian restaurant.  Our Amtrak bus picked us up at 9:00 and the train left Emeryville on time.  We arrived home the next day at 2:00, after a bus ride from Eugene because of track work between Eugene and Portland.
