-----San Francisco - the famous cable cars



---Left: the terminus of the Hyde Street cable car, at the foot of Hyde, down by the bay.
---Right: a double car heads up the extremely steep Hyde Street.




---Left: we walked up Hyde - could you believe it! - all the way up to the inter-section with Lombard, the crooked street.
---Right: here's a cable car coming down Hyde at the intersection of Lombard - imagine their stomaches on that ride down to the Bay!
