back to reality


i had 3 days full of fun-lack of sleep-sick of sleeping-bored on the bus-sudoku!

the first day wasn't that a big deal for me because we've been there 2 years ago..haha nothing changed still the same..so it was boring for me, proof from multiply! haha

second day: i woke up around 330am took a bath while my parents are sleeping! haha because i don't want to cram..it was too early for me to talk and look around so i went back to sleep during the long bus ride..going to san francisco!

i loved the weather but since i have this thing with my something veins on my legs so i had some reaction with extreme cold!

i enjoyed the boat ride around the bay area, we were under the Golden Gate then around Alcatraz. it was freezing cold at the deck of the boat! haha my knees were literally shaking and non stop shivering because of the wind, but when the boat would stop for a while it wasn't really that cold. i was loving the sun at that moment/day, i don't care even if i get burned i just need heat! haha forgot to bring my bonnet so i had to use mama's golf hat, it was too thin for that kind of wind.

then before leaving Pier39, we looked for a clam chowder store just around the area, we didn't have enough time to eat at the pier. just like what kuya earnest told me, never leave Pier39 without tasting their clam chowder..haha so we did, my tongue got burned but it was worth it! haha

we went to this museum, i was expecting a gallery of pictures or statues but it was a different version..it was huge and very detailed! i'm not that into greek eras so i wasn't that interested on the history.

then we we're dropped at Crowne Plaza Hotel, with a heated pool, but we're going to meet our relatives so no time for swimming! haha

our relatives left the Philippines when i was 5 years old, so they had no idea what i looked like..haha after seeing me, they realized they've been far away too long! haha we ate at this chinese restaurant around 11pm, had chitchats and of course pictures! had dessert at their unit then traveled all the way to the other side of san francisco! haha so we arrived at our hotel around 2am then i woke up 415am! haha

third day: first one to get up and prepare..we left the hotel around 630am went back to Lombard where the famous zigzag road is designed. walked 4 blocks on a 30 degrees street..haha when we reached the 3rd block it was worth it! haha FYI: the reason why they had to do the zigzag thing,it was too steep for cars to pass by accident rates were high. so they had to revise the street to slow down the cars and lessen accidents. i liked the flowers, so lovely in the morning! haha

then went to chinatown, largest chinatown in the country or in the state, forgot what the tour guide mentioned. then we went inside hilton hotel to use their restrooms! haha

then back to a 6hour bus ride with 2 stop overs..

then back to reality..no more sightseeing and boat rides and of course bus rides! haha

i left my heart in san francisco and in the bus! hahaha
