I have been fortunate that over the years I have been able to travel & see alot of the United States--I think at last count I've been to 39 states & Puerto Rico. Just added Alaska last summer! One of my favorite cities ( after Boston) is San Francisco. I've been there once a decade for the last 4 decades! Every time we go , we delight in the new things we find & the familiar places we revisit. Golden Gate Park is one of those & the Conservatory of Flowers is a favorite within the park.

My husband hates big cities, but he has said " if he was told he had to move to a city of more than 500,000 he would move to San Francisco in a heartbeat!"
The conservatory opened in 1879 and most recently had major work done after severe wind damage in 2003.
There are a variety of plants from a 100 year old philodendron to aqautic plants --approx. 1700 in all--a must see if you go to San Francisco!

I love San Francisco. One of the few drawbacks to moving there would be the price of housing! I know it's come down a little in the last two years, but we looked into it a few years back and it was astronomical! Very nice photos Ann!
Thanks, Becky! We never really considered moving there, but do love to visit!
San Francisco is such a great city. These are great pictures.
