San Francisco

We got back late last night from San Francisco. I'm exhausted. It was quite the adventure, especially for me since I had no idea what to expect. I was surprised to find out that San Francisco reminded me of a mini New York. Who knew that I could satisfy my city craving here in California?


Of course, we hit up Haight and Ashbury. Everyone told me that this was a MUST. Tons of fun shops there! I got the cutest red and white striped dress from X Generation.


Two full days were spent exploring by bike. We cruised through the city, we conquered Golden Gate Park (bigger than we thought...), we crossed the Golden Gate bridge and traveled into Sausalito. So this turned into the amount of bike riding that I would normally do in...an entire year?...in two days. I'm surprised I can move today. It was nerveracking, the bridge was HECTIC, but it was so much fun!


(oh hey wind hair.)




I had a really good time and I'm so glad I finally made it there! Now I know what people are talking about when they say how great San Francisco is!

Tomorrow is June! Summer time is here!
