Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial at Yerba Buena Gardens, San Francisco, CA

Located right in the middle of Yerba Buena Gardens is a beautiful Martin Luther King Memorial.  This memorial celebrates Dr. King's life and his life's mission.  Make sure to walk behind the waterfall and read the quotes engraved on the wall, it moved me to tears.

Since today is Martin Luther King Jr.'s Day, I also listened to Dr. King's speech, "I Have A Dream."  The speech was delivered August 28, 1963 at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C.  It can be heard at http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkihaveadream.htm
