Coming To America

The Olympic torch arrived in San Francisco shortly before 4 a.m. today and was immediately put away to a secret location. And tomorrow at 1:00 p.m., the Olympic torch will start its tour in San Francisco. Starting at McCovey Cove, the torch relay route extends a total of about 6 miles. In about an hour and a half, the sacred flame is expected to tour Third Street, hit the Embarcadero, journey to Jefferson Street, be carried through Hyde Street, be taken to Beach Street, and then to Polk Street. From there, the Olympic torch will continue on to Bay Street then re-enter the Embarcadero, finally ending at Justin Herman Plaza, where it will be sent off with a concluding ceremony signaling the end of the relay run in North America.
So far, the activists already caused a big stir on Golden Gate Bridge...
