It's a cool town. Going on another walking tour shortly - if I can find the damn meeting place. I wish they'd give you an address.
Other observations about SF:
No Tim Hortons - guess that goes without saying, but they would come in handy.
Not much fast food of any kind. Walked up Market street which is their eqivalent of Yonge Street and did not spot any golden arches or other bS.
Traffic on streets is very heavy. Much heavier than T.O. And everyone is on the horn for some reason.
They have street cars, electric buses, and cable cars. Old street cars too. Like the famous Red Rocket era cars. But they are cool in my books, though probably too small for Toronto.
Lots of public spaces on top of buildings that you can hang out in downtown.
BART vs. the TTC.
So far, I could live here. This is not Jesusland by a long shot.
