crookedest street

another of the mandatory san francisco stops

is lombard street -

the crookedest street in the world

a one block section of the street

is at a 27 degree grade

and would be too steep to just drive up or down -

for this reason they turned the road into a switchback

with 8 hairpin turns

once again - 

a super fun place to visit

but not really a street

i'd want to live on
