I rode on California Shuttle Bus to LA from San Francisco. Gorgeous bus but reasonable.

When I woke up early and got out for walking, I found a family of deer, so I went back in to take pictures of them.

This is the California City Bus. I am not San Francisco residence now, but I have been living in SF, since 2000. I am proud of them they have a better long distance bus than Greyhound.

It may be common to see that kinds of views for American, but for me as Japanese it is interesting to see the vast and abandoned American landscape. In Japan, we always see building or mountain not much flat areas.

Dore Alley, 7/27/09'

A scene at Dore Alley, another gay event.
My camera battery was out, so I did not take many photos though.
It was so clouded with gay guys, so I was sick with claustrophobia. 
I try not to post too sexual image on here.

It was after hate crime attack at New York Jewish Museum, so there was security going on in this museum also.

View from Broadway Street, SF 09/07/08

Here I was staying at a hotel on Broadway street, I walked around and took photos. I love the City Lights bookstore, and Beat Museum.


The hotel I was staying at was very bad with cleanliness. Me and my partner got flu there. And also it was above the go-go bar and there was a lots of noise, and I could not sleep.


Wish I had more money and North of Chinatown, there is Telegraph Hill as you see, and it is more sunny part of San Francisco and it is good to live there some day.
