Vacation part 3 (San Francisco)


After our visit to Oceanside, we had tentatively planned to drive south to San Diego (1 hour away), but we decided we were done with the beach and would rather go to San Francisco (10 hours away!). Since we didn't have anything reserved in San Diego, we were able to come up with an alternate plan and just be able to do it. That's the best kind of vacation, when you can do whatever you want to. We spent two nights in Castro Valley, about 45 minutes east of San Francisco, and used BART and all the other wonderful forms of public transportation available in SF to go see Fisherman's Wharf (where we ate our first real crab; very tasty but a lot of work for not much reward), Golden Gate Bridge, Golden Gate Park and downtown (where Steven got to go to his favorite store, the Apple Store, and I got to go to one of my favorites, H&M). It was definitely worth it and absolutely one of my favorite days of our whole vacation.
