Houseboats in Frisco by maggiemae

Houseboats in Frisco

Posting early as I'm on the plane to Auckland on the way back home and I totally miss the 29th January! How can we do that!
This was the house boat community in Sausalito in San Francisco. These tiny houses are all connected to all facilities that a house could have. But they are all unique, totally different, odd, quirky and quite delightful.
Three good things;
1. I have recovered somewhat after 14 hours rest and sleep.
2. The night in the plane is ahead of me but I think I will take 15 sleeping pills and be carted off in the morning - just kidding!
3. Nothing lost or left behind... yet!
Shame you are missing the 29th it's apretty good day ... though very hot and humid... hope you are lightly dressed for the heat wave that you will hit when you land in Auckland ..

@julzmaioro I've heard about the heatwave. Have carried some light clothes for 5 weeks. Didn't take up much space.

I didn't realize you were stateside again. Safe travels as you return home- interesting décor- but very inviting.

Have a good flight home. some warmer weather would be nice, but a heatwave is probably not what you expected.

The houseboat looks very inviting with the flowers and plants and even a birdbath.

Be sure to wave as you fly over...

Cute little home. Many of us strive to have big houses with lots of space and land but l guess really all we need is somewhere to sit, eat, sleep, cook and ablute (is that even a word?!!).

PS, safe travels.

did you stay in this house? that would've been so cool. hope you are well rested now. my boss and his wife will be coming back from NZ on wednesday. they will be gaining a day coming back while you lost a day going back in. hope all's well.

Love this -- so quaint but everything to hand ! How soon your travels have come to an end ! ( considering it has been over 2 months !! )

I love Sausalito! Such a great place to visit and only 2 hours from my house! A village of artists, actors and creative people. I hope you enjoyed it! :)

What a fabulous houseboat, it is so quaint. Have a safe journey home.

Great capture of this cool houseboat community... #1 sounds blissful
January 29th, 2018  
@louannwarren wow- you remembered! No it’s one of travelling’s casualties!
January 29th, 2018  
Very nice capture. I have not seen these before. People are creatively living as affordable as possible. FAV

The simple life here Maggie! No flying around the world just pottering & living easy. Not many possessions to lose but of course it might all be an illusion & they don't live like that at all. You are probably on NZ soil now as it's 8.20am in the morning there.
January 29th, 2018  
That's adorable. Such a lot of character and I guess each one is very individual.
January 29th, 2018  
@happypat yes.... moping about cause we can’t get int our motel for 4 hours!
January 29th, 2018  
Oh Sausalito!!!! What a gorgeous place that is!!!
January 29th, 2018  
very attractive One hears, of course, that land prices in SF are not to be believed.
January 29th, 2018  
Oh this is a cool houseboat...........safe travels!

Unusual houseboat.

@tonygig Not one of them looks like a normal houseboat! Mostly a small house on a pontoon!
January 31st, 2018  
@francoise I did hear that to buy one of these 'houseboats" can cost over a million dollars!

What a quaint place to live. - No lawns to mow there!

@dide They even had a lemon tree with big fat lemons on it - in a pot!
