In San Francisco we spent the morning focusing on the cable cars. We took a few rides on them and then went to the cable car museum. Andrew and I had never actually been to the museum and that was quite fascinating because its actually the place that runs the cable cars. All the cables come back to that spot as its the engine hub of the city's cars.
The afternoon the family went off to see the Golden Gate bridge whilst Andrew and I did some shopping and mooching around in coffee shops! After a rather large evening meal we did stumble across an interesting science experiment in the city. It was two big concrete structures where if you sat in one and talked you could be heard by the person sitting in the other, despite a huge gap in the middle. It certainly made us chuckle.
The focus of Sacramento, unsurprisingly, was a railroad museum. As Andrew and I had already done this museum we opted to again wander around and amuse ourselves. I therefore don't have any photos of the museum and the family inside it. Sorry. But I do have photos of us exploring the capitol building.
As you can see we were carrying luggage with us because we were that very evening catching the next train...the sleeper train!!
