The Castro

I have to admit I was slightly disappointed by the Castro. Since it is advertised as the "gayest corner on earth" (and also brilliantly depicted in the movie Milk) I guess I expected something much more flamboyant. Something with plenty of handsome young men in tight pants and fancy unbuttoned shirts hand in hand smelling like flowers. Well it wasn't exactly like that. Yes there was the occasional flag, and a lot of pink, but all in all nothing flashy. Or maybe I was just a bit tired after having walked all day already.
