Brooklyn Goes to San Francisco

I'm up in the bay area this week for the Vloggercon Volunteers meetup on Friday at Maxfields Coffee House (see the map for location. I'll post some video from that soon. I also shot some video of the Hotel Mosser and will be adding that to the map too.

There are many coffee shops and resturants near the vloggercon site and all along Market Street. I'll try to profile several in future posts.

San Francisco is a very hip town and many visitors may be suprised (and hopefully delighted) at the wild things that often go on in this big city.

Making friends in this town is easy as long as you remember one little thing: NEVER, EVER refer to the city as "Frisco".

Many folks in the Bay Area seem to have a bad reaction to that. I once did so by accident and was nearly tarred and feathered by an angry mob of hippies.

Here's a fun Archive video from 1947 of Brooklyn native Phil Foster as he tours San Francisco and comments on many places of interest.

I love the line "San Francisco streets go in six directions, North, South, East, West, Up and Down!"

I hope you enjoy. Click the pic to view the vid.
