My 33rd postcard, and 6th from the United States of America. Photo was taken in San Francisco, California by Lenny Gill. The "Port of San Francisco" on the left of the skyline on a clear night for the "City by the Bay". San Francisco is the fourth most populous city in California and the 12th most populous city in the United States, with a population of 808,976. San Francisco comprises 8869,3 square kilometer. Today, San Francisco is a popular international tourist destination. Its famous landmarks are especially the Golden Gate Bridge, the cable cars, and Chinatown. Thank you Victoria (vejoyce) for this beautiful postcard!

The city lights are amazingly beautiful and it looks so magical! All is bigger and better in America, or is it?

It sometimes seem like that, all is bigger and better in America. At least when I compare America and Finland. I can't say anything else - wow!
