Allison Walks…Golden Gate Park
Click through the slideshow to check out Allison’s walk of Golden Gate Park.
Welcome to Golden Gate Park
I know this may shock you to hear, but Golden Gate Park is amazing. I’m embarrassed to say that while I’ve driven through, visited the museums and attended music festivals in it, I have never actually walked in the park before. I think I waited so long because I assumed it was just another park. Man, was I wrong.
Hi. My name is Allison and I am a recent transplant from the Florida Keys, a chain of tiny islands that has one main, stick-straight road, and the impossibility of getting lost. After moving to San Francisco in 2008 and getting lost for the umpteenth time, I made it a goal to walk every street to get my bearings in this hilly, twisted town. After 12 months of steady plodding, I am about 400 miles into the journey. To keep track of where I’ve been, I keep a blog, http://allisonwalkssf.com.
Aloha Alison,
I really like this blog of yours…orienteering about and becoming familiar with SF (if you’re not from around here) can be a bit of a challenge…a bit. My wife and daughter and I have ourselves just re-located from elsewhere to here…we live in the Outer Sunset off 29th and Noriega (not far at all from Judah), and walking about SF is fun and interesting…and certainly a great way to get ones bearings of this fun, good food, good music, good art, and great people city of SF. Keep your blog-explorations coming…they are fun to read.
