Lombard Street - July 3, 06.



Lombard Street, SF, California is surrounded by hills in all three sides of it like that in Kathmandu, Nepal. One had to go to the top of the hill from behind to view the Lombard Street. Because the Street is located on the top of the hill, our car was trying to go up the street. But it was blocked because like us there were many other cars standing in a long queue, all trying to drive up in the hill to go to other side.

The Lombard Street is designed crookedly with hardly 8' wide road. The garden was there in every triangular gap of the road in highly steep road. Drivers can drive down but not up. It was very difficult because of its crookedness and steepness. Somehow Bijay managed to go ahead and we took an opportunity to drive down the Crooked Garden in California.
