San Francisco Travel Blogs - Page 9

We flew down to San Francisco on Friday morning for my British citizenship ceremony. The Consulate General got up and said that he'll assume we know all about the United Kingdom, and really the only thing he wanted us to know was the right way to hang up the Union Jack. Really it is such a sill…

This travel blog basically a collection of pictures I took, while I was in the western United States in September 2008.

Before any trip I always try to foresee any situation I may encounter. Long nights, cold, heat, rain, and any other special elements I want to catch. I approach a trip like a photo assignment with serious limitations. Ill just jump in with my recommendations. For lenses go as wide as you can a…

On May I went twice to San Francisco and I was amazing. The mountains, the bay, everything was just perfect. The food is delicious too.

The place: San Francisco, CA.  The date: third sunday of May.The cost: $45 if you want to race (actual porpuse) or just enough to get all the alcohol you can handleThe assumption: Tere's something disturbing about being drunk at 8am.  And there's something miraculous about getting so man…

So today we did it... we've got our tickets in hand (well, not really.... they are e tickets, ha ha) and were totally psyched!! Now all there is left to do is gather as much info as we can about where we want to go and what we want to see, get our stuff packed (remember, not too much stuff …

Drew, Sunshine, and I went to San Francisco for a 3 hour rendezvous. Our first stop: San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Being in a museum reminded me of Europe. The hushed silence, the pitter patter of feet on the wooden floors and of course the shock of hearing laughter from Drew break the s…

After another great (and free) breakfast we headed down to Powell Street to get the Cable car, this time we got to hang onto the side for dear life, breathing in when another cable car passed us by.  We had a wander around the fishermans wharf area, and slowly made our way to Pier 33 for our t…

Breakfast is free here but not worth the effort of climbing the two flights of stairs.  Most of it is finished but more eventually arrives. Coffee, bagels toast and jam.  We book a tour to Yosemite National Park for tomorrow and head out to explore San Fransisco.  Just because I alwa…

Sitting in my friend's bedroom in San Fransisco, I seem very far away from China though I arrived here only yesterday. I actually travelled in time to get here; I left Hong Kong airport at 2:10 PM on May 16th and arrived in San Fransisco at 11 AM May 16th.  It is the only day I have ever lived…

Saturday morning came too soon....we had been out late the night before with the meet up folks but we had to get up early to get to the embassy when they opened at 9am.  Of course it had to still be raining so I opted to throw my hair back again and just go.  We hopped in a cab and we wer…

Hello again! Tired of my travel updates yet? Well, I promise you there will be several month drought after this trip. At least nothing major to report. I'll start be slightly recaping yesterday. We ended up swapping rooms at the hotel because there was a wierd electrical buzzing all night and while…

Ever since i once made a flight with only 5 minutes to spare before takeoff, i have become overly cautious & meticulous in my preparation, so i leave home at 4:15am & get dropped off at the airport by 4:45am...they ticket counter will not open for another half hour, which is swell because n…

San Francisco, breathtaking views from everywhere in the city!!!!! . This trip was highlighted with a tour of Alcatraz, and a trip on the Napa Valley wine train. This is a must if you have an extra day in the SF area. You get a gourmet lunch and taste countless wines.(

Went to San Fran on a balmy weekend in February. Fun place to hang out.
