We've been to San Francisco so many times that I've lost count. But we never took the cable cars because it was either too cold or the lines were too long. Well I've got to tell you that we didn't know what we were missing. If you visit San Francisco you've gotta do the cable cars at least once...it's worth it! The drivers are entertaining and the peoples expressions are fun to watch and boy oh boy, the scenery is incredible from the cars. But watch out for the real sharp turns. The drivers don't slow down and it can catch you off guard. I thought I was going to end up on the asphalt.
