Disclaimer:
The 1st half of this post is technically part of the SF Weekend 1.0 entry. People might have the wrong notion that I don't take a bath and change my clothes when I am in abroad haha.
We started the day eating breakfast at the Fisherman's Warf. We particularly ate at Bubba Gump's. I even got a glowing glass for free! The Fisherman's Warf is a place by the bay area filled with stores and restaurants. It is also quite popular because of the boat tours the place offers to tourists.

After breakfast, we went around San Francisco some more. We went to the very infamous Lombard Street wherein you can find the Crooked Street. It is the place to spot tourists around the globe in San Francisco. The place is very famous because of the cutting-edge architecture behind it.

After which, we directly went to
Coit Tower. The tower was specifically made for a famous fireman who did an act of heroism for San Francisco. You could also see a statue of Christopher Colombus by the area. The overlooking view of the entire bay area is to die for when you get to the peak of the tower.

SF Weekend 2.0
My day started out with my babysitting duties. We ate breakfast at the Mariot then I went swimming with my cousins Jacob and Kirby. After checking out at the hotel, we went to Nordstrom to have lunch. We ate at an oriental Vietnamese place called Out the door. The interiors were great and the food tasted very much authentic. I ordered Vietnamese Chicken w/ Garlic sticky rice. It was out of this world and had reasonable proportions.

After lunch, I went around Nordstrom to shop some more. I also bought dessert at Bellini's. They are known in San Francisco because of their delectable sweets.

After going around Nordstrom, I went to SFMOMA (San Francisco Museum of Modern Art). I especially adored the wide selection of pieces from Andy Warhol in the museum. There were also pieces from world-renown painters such as Piet Mondrian. I am actually thinking of going back next week to see the new collection from Picasso which will be shown there.
