What Is Wrong With The Embarcadero?

On five trips to my hotel in the last 25 hours my ride has not used the Embarcadero but rather they have chosen to go through the city to the hotel. The Embarcadero trip would consist of literally a couple of turns (all level, no hills) after exiting the Bay Bridge and then one turn from the Embarcadero to Bay Street, the hotel is on Bay Street and Jones.



The trip through the city consists of this: Up the hill, down the hill, up the hill, down the hill, up the hill, down the hill, **Kim thinks she is going to throw up**, up the hill, down the hill, up the hill, up the hill, **Kim really thinks she is going to throw up**, down the hill, up the hill, down the hill, **Kim thinks it is a matter of seconds till she throws up, what is wrong with the Embarcadero**, up the hill, down the hill, **Kim thinks, lord is this trip going to ever end**. **up the hill, down the hill. **Kim feels like she is going to throw up**....Finally arrive at hotel...wanting to throw up.

Note to self: Instruct everyone to take the Embarcadero, don't go through the city.

I'll defer to ABBA, but usually the Embarcadero takes forever due to traffic and stops.

ABBA and I had fun driving the streets of San Fran - she hates going uphill, and I hate going downhill.

Yep, the problem with the Embarcadero is the traffic and usually the trolly cars/busses/crazy tourists, etc. Also, you'll want to be aware of when there are Giants games as I believe the stadium is right there.

And yes, the Queen and I are lots and lots of fun driving through the city together....
