Maggie's school break getaway vacation with her Dad:
Haight Street San Francisco March 2002
Haight Street hippies and alternative lifestyles.
From the moment the airport taxi turned uphill onto Haight, Maggie's eyes lit up, though it was after midnight. Colorful, of course run-down, really bohemian, an honest Old Town--what Grenwich Village used to be before it got gentrified. This is the real thing--homeless bums and all. Half the folks sporting backpacks, some of considerable size. (Continued . . . )

Maggie shopped clothing jean stuff plus a sale at Goodwill and got her hair done at a groovy (sorry, Maggie) salon. I found Euro-Indian mix music new and exciting plus lots more classical Indian to add to my collection. The place we stayed at was a gem--Red Victorian B&B. Found it last minute in an otherwise crappy travel tome. Rooms with wildly creative decorations. The aquarium flush toilet was worth the trip to SF. And the staff were honest to g-d peacenicks just like the old days! The lady-owner in her 80's starts each day getting the guests to talk about their save-the-world ideas. We ran into a punk star couple, "The-ends." (Still have to track them down.) Super interesting street people. Good as NYC cafe-coffee shops and much cheaper. Street very clean. A local rich guy and some buddies of his sweep the sidewalk every day. Then the city comes by and does the street. [CLICK HERE to return to Haight Street San Francisco March 2002 Home Page]
