Up to Prague for the weekend. Always sad to see yet another airline Okidata retired.

Grandview Park always surprises me with a new perspective; today I realized you can get the Golden Gate Bridge towers to line up from the stairs (or an unnervingly astigmatic view pictured) 3/

Crossing the Portola Drive chasm then up to the high point in Sunset Heights, which is not really accessible (there’s two water tanks and a skinny grey micro-Sutro) but the houses next to it seem to be having a competition for the most ostentatious house […]

Lovely 13 km walk around some of the literal high points of #sanfrancisco today. One of those days where October Summer is struggling to stick around—low angle sunlight but somehow still warm. First up is of course Mount Davidson. Still some fog to make it […]

I guess it was only a matter of time before stores gave up keeping the red buttons charged and make you hit the API endpoint yourself.
