Day Eight: San Francisco Cable Cars





A San Fransisco Cable Car employee badge collected on a family vacation in 2008.

This is one of my favorite souvenirs of a vacation road trip down the Pacific Coast from Victoria, BC to San Diego, CA. One of the stops was two nights in San Francisco which included the obligatory cable car ride. I purchased this badge replica at the Cable Car Museum which is an accurate copy of those worn on the uniforms of the Cable Car operators. I love it when a souvenir is the "real thing" and not just a cartoony tourist-only fake.
