Air France began Airbus A380 service to San Francisco International Airport yesterday, joining Lufthansa, which inaugurated SFO's first regularly scheduled A380 service a few weeks ago.
Here's a good video of yesterday's Air France arrival, including a runway-side view of the landing and the airport's celebratory fire truck waterworks display. Apologies for the musical soundtrack... it's not our fault.
Beautiful. And nothing suggestive at all about two fire trucks hosing it down in celebratory ecstasy.

Neat!
I was not lucky enough to have on-field access, but did take this video from across the bay at the end of 28L where it landed:
