2. Walk along the street with the church on your right (the west side of the church).
3. When you reach six pawns, turn right (east) and walk along under the trees, coming up to a lawn. You will pass the Patron of the City of San Francisco.
4. Continue walking toward the three flag poles with the lawn on your left. The reverend on the right will not face you.

7. Turn towards the phoenix and go up another set of stairs between the light poles.
8. Turn left at the top of the stairs and walk with a building on your right (the west side of the building).
9. Continue down two sets of stairs. Then, proceed along the walkway between the ivy. A small parking lot will be on your right. You are close to the letterbox.
