bay to breakers - guiltied!

Somehow, myself and some of Holly's relatives decided to walk Bay To Breakers, the 7 mile jaunt from one side of San Francisco (down by the Bay Bridge) to the other side (over where the Pacific Ocean starts at Ocean Beach.) Tens of thousands of other people, many in fancy dress or costumes, make the trip too, so it was pretty good fun, except for the hills :P Some of the best costumes included a group of people who went as the US Government's Iraqi deck of cards (one of them was Dr.Germ, yay!), and, of course, the folk in salmon costumes who run Breakers To Bay every year (going upstream, get it?)

But smartest of all were a large group sporting Frank Chu-inspired signs. For those of you who don't know who he is, he's a San Francisco legend who spends 8 hours a day, 52 weeks a year parading round the center of SF holding a sign saying (and there are many variants) - 'Impeach Clinton - 12 Galaxies Guiltied to A Altratronic Rocket Society'. Info and pics of him are here and here. Even better, I spotted an historic meeting, when the actual Frank Chu (who was walking too) ran into his fans, and I managed to get a snapshot with my watch camera of them hanging out together (you get a random extra pic of the race too :P):
