    Well, some things never change and some things continue to change, like the Bay To Breakers annual run/walk/dance/crawl from Downtown San Francisco (a few blocks from the bay) to the Pacific Ocean. It’s a very doable distance for most people and I think everyone should do it at least once, in the name of tradition. There are serious runners, serious walkers, causes, corporate groups, people who just want to be crazy, people who just like to drink, naked people, and on and on. You will see EVERY type of person you can imagine. You’ll also see a collection of costuming – inventive, funny, tongue-in-cheek, stupid and non-existent. It’s a wild and crazy event that reflects the true diversity of our wonderful city. Watch and enjoy it all.

    This is not the most attractive spot in town, but the teriyaki here is really good, and the price is really low. It’s a little difficult to find, but not so much that it’s packed most every day during the week for lunch. They’re not opened for dinner or on weekends, sorry; so make sure you stop by when you’re strolling down Market between Union Square and the Ferry Building.

    Go to First and Market; then head south a half block and turn right. It’s nearly on the corner of 1st and Stevenson.

    After the big parade, we all walked down to the Civic Center, where all the food concessions, live entertainment and dancing is set-up. The summer smells of BBQ’d everything was wafting though the air on this fun and sunny day. We had a drink along the way … or two, then make a quick trip through Ferry Village (not to be missed, if you’re up for a bit of live X-Rated stuff … I didn’t post any because most of the naked people are *not* the ones you really want to see naked … as you’ll see in the video here … watch closely, if it’s your thing). Every year, we see the same naked ones and trust me, it’s never pretty, darn it. I wonder how many end up on line and if their mothers or co-workers ever spot them? I just can’t imagine.

    I loved doing this video and love watching it. It’s a real slice of the whole day. You’ll see it all in this 8 minute video – all types, shapes, genders, outfits and more. The music was next to where I was sitting, which added a great little ambiance. I love watching people kind of “half dancing” as they walked by. For more gay pride info: Click Here.
