I have paid $50 for a half-day park in the SF Financial District, and the Grand Californian was a better hotel. Even SFO airport parking gets up there. If four of us are to be gone more than 3 days, it's cheaper to take the shuttle than to park.<br /><br />We're used to it, I guess, but 25 cents touches a nerve.<br /><br />We drove our own car last visit, so at least we didn't pay $200 to park a rented car.<br /><br />JGJGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456196709930408585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-3340323091390949162012-12-27T13:59:45.110-08:002012-12-27T13:59:45.110-08:00Hi Snow - Thanks for the vote!

Those are San Francisco parking prices.<br /><br />I bet there was no debate at all over the increase.<br /><br />JGJGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456196709930408585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29249921.post-57847923403699754232012-12-27T10:05:50.424-08:002012-12-27T10:05:50.424-08:00Yep.

I remember it well and it was always my favorite.<br /><br />Your photos are awesome, whether in color, b&w, rare, pristine, blurry, etc. I think you strike a nice balance with your collection. No complaints from me.K.

And as far as parking I'd even be willing to pay up to 50 cents a day!<br /><br />Also added my vote to your Savannah Georgia South Magazine contest.
