My first day. Got on BART, no problems. Came out on Powell street by the escalator and had about 10 minutes to kill. I looked around and saw a cute little couple hugging goodbye. Cute little means really short, they almost looked like teenagers.  My gaze moves around to other sites; the tourists lining up at the Cable Car station.  The Police Officer looking serious and posted outside of H&M, and the people coming up from BART like ants. I catch the 'cute couple' again and they are making out. I look up at Nordstrom's and around more, just people watching. Oh yeah, there's that guy holding up the Jesus Loves sign.  As I glance around, the 'cute couple' is still making out. By now, I'm curious. I look for camera's. Are they filming a gum or breathe mint commercial? How could anyone stand and make out for that long? I look around at others to see if anyone else notices or is watching them. Nope, the commuters are still moving around like ants.  Cute couple are STILL kissing. When I say kissing, I mean full on, make out session.  Not something you see everyday? Well, I never have in Walnut Creek or Pleasant Hill.  They are out in the open, at the top of the Powell Street  BART station!  Commuters are required to walk around them.  They break it off after 10 minutes and go their separate ways. Welcome to SF.
