San Francisco--where the homeless have cell phones

Jesse and I just got back in from the Best Side very early this morning. San Francisco was awesome! The only way to do The City justice is by bloggin' about it one day at a time.

Ahhh...Union Square. San Francisco's big shopping district. Every store you could possibly think of is here. I even walked into an Old Navy that I actually wanted to shop in because it was so cute.














Tiffanys is beautiful in any city!














SF Museum of Modern Art. Jesse and I saw this great exhibit from a Japanese photographer about life in Japan after the A bomb hit. I recommend it to anyone who is in The City. Very, very thought provoking.















On our way to Chinatown for dinner, Jesse and I crossed his street--Jessie Street, that is!













The view from Stockton. Yes, DC. This is what a real Chinatown should look like. It should be full of shops whose names I don't understand. And those shops should sell things I've never seen before and I shouldn't understand what to do with them. Ended up eating at the Great Eastern Restaurant. It wasn't very whole-in-the-wall, but it was classy and good. Another good sign, Jesse and I were the only non-Chinese people eating there.
















The TransAmerica building--one of the most recognizable buildings in San Francisco's skyline.










After the TA building, Jesse and I thought it would be fun to walk up the North Beach stairs in order to work off the Chinese food we ate. Unfortunately, I was too out of breath to take pictures when we got to the top. Wasn't too tired to head over to the bars in North Beach though.
