Day 2 – After a great night’s sleep…follow me on another day off in this beautiful city, with a GREAT SONG about San Francisco – and see how my journey unfolds…
…off to breakfast at Mama’s Royal Cafe in Oakland, California – gettin’ ready to “boggie on down the road”!
As we crossed the Oakland Bridge 
to see another part of the Bay area, I realized that we were on the bridge that had partially collapsed from the 1989 San Francisco earthquake…now it has been rebuilt – it was hard to imagine it was the SAME bridge – going TO OAKLAND, you on are on the LOWER LEVEL – it was kinda weird…look at this 1989 footage…
1989 Bay area earthquake – Oakland Bridge across San Francisco Bridge
The day was super – as we visited Berkeley University 
– oh how it brought back “hippie” memories,
unique shops and architectural of Oakland – MUCH different from San Francisco, the Jack London Square – remember “Call of the Wild” – a beautiful mural honoring Jack London is here…
If you’ve never been to OAKLAND, California and this are – it’s a wonderful place – totally different from San Francisco. I LOVE THE QUOTE…
“the perfect function of man is to live, not to exist”…have a wonderful evening = until tomorrow!
