Photo Diary: Adventures in San Fran Part II

This photo diary, with photos from Feb 14, is a continuation of my last blog post since I didn't want to post so many pictures at once; though I've defeated that purpose by posting a whole bunch on this one.  That's ok.  I just started my training at Macy's and though I always enjoy learning new things I know that, ultimately, this is not what I want to do.  I want to experience different fields within my degree so I'll know when I've found "the one."

Anyway these are still from San Francisco.  One of the highlights of the whole trip was getting to see Swedish House Mafia for their One Last Tour.  It was so surreal and one month later I am still amazed that I had the opportunity to see them.  Many thanks to the young San Franciscans who helped us get to the Bill Graham Civic Center!

Ghirardelli Square

Golden Gate Bridge in the background

I don't remember what this was called, but it was the absolute best!

Photo Diary: Adventures in San Fran Pt 1

So as promised, I am uploading photos from my trip.  These are from Ash Wednesday mass in Santa Monica and our first and partial second day in San Fran.  Flying to San Fran, it was our first time on Virgin America and I've got to say it's my favorite airline so far.  They had the cutest safety guideline presentation and best of all, Current TV, a network of documentaries.  Tim and I were so engrossed in the farming of tuna in Japan that we hadn't even noticed we were close to landing until we actually landed...that's a first.  While at the airport and on the Bart, I wondered why people kept looking at me, then I realized it's because I had ash on my forehead.

The BART, only $8.25 to Union Sq, as a opposed to a $40 taxi
An organic food place for lunch 
The first Lomography store I've seen
One of the many flower stands
  Early Vday dinner
 The best prime rib ever!

 The obligatory restaurant photo
 I think I had eggs benedict almost everyday for breakfast
 First time on a cable car to get to the piers
 So cold we could see our breath 
 Friendly seagulls...
 And sea lions
