Finally back from the hotel after a long day out... but was a great day in San Francisco! First, we went to see the SF Bay Bridge, but it was totally covered with fog. -.- So we tried our best to take some photos of the 'disappearing' bridge, cos it looked like half the bridge was gone!

We headed to this area called pier 39 at the seaside, and saw Alcatraz, the prison that appeared in the movie 'The Rock'. And also walked around the old-fashioned shopping area, which I loved! Then came the big highlight. Went to see Golden Gate Bridge, and walked along it for a while. It was opened on me birthday, of all days. Anyway, was so high up from sea that people actually succeeded in commiting suicide there. Gave me the goosebumps and also saw this class excursion there too. you know, along with the nerds and the glamor girls. It'd be fun to have a tour with some of your classmates to further cities away from Asia. will cost more, but I wouldn't mind at all. It's just as fun with the family of course.

By that time, it was 3pm, so we headed to the Golden Gate Park, and the view was spectacular. It was just like in Autuum with the fallen leaves and the wet grass. We headed down to the city centre, and we went to Macy's department store. swear nothing in the store costs less than US$50, even with the hats. Just an observation, but crazy prices. Then we walked down to Japantown. It's like chinatown, but a lot more sophisicated. quiet yet convenient there. Then it was down to chinatown for chinese food for dinner, ate the same kway teow there. Realised that most of the people here are more independent than Singaporeans, always going around places on their own. Singaporeans love going in groups, not that I don't like that.

Love the atmosphere of San Francisco: a city with modern infrastructure and countryside scenery. Tomorrow, we'll going off to Yosemite National Park and Lake Tahoe. Don't think there will be Internet Access there so till then!

God Bless and Peace. (Oh yeah, somebody was giving out brochures of scriptures from the Bible, for charity work. Such nice people. And my Ipod right earpiece is DAMAGED. :( though I have no complains of the trip so far.)
