Haight-Ashbury, San Francisco



I was a pseudo hippie when I was last here in 1993 and remember being disappointed with Haight Ashbury. There was no sign of the Summer of Love then so I'm curious to see whether the area has gentrified further. Walking up Haight Street I feel I'm in a cleaner version of Camden Town with shops painted in psychedelic colours all selling similar faux hippie tat.
