San Francisco Travel Guide


I took an spur of the moment trip to San Francisco at the end of February and it was FANTASTIC!  I've had a number of friends who have moved out to popular San Fran in the last year and it was amazing to go visit them and the sunny West Coast for a week.  Despite a truly out of character lack of planning the trip was jam packed and there were many places (most especially food) that I'd love to return to.

Tuesday:  Arrived less than 24 hrs after booking my ticket around 2:30pm.

Met my friend Daniel and we wandered around Downtown before heading to the Top of the Mark for a quick drink with a view.  Despite being quite touristy the view was beautiful and it helped get me oriented for the week.  Drinks were on the pricey side but I had a tasty local Anchor Steam and Daniel had some good Bloody Marys (who knew I liked those!).


We met up with my friend Glen in Berkeley for some decent Thai and Chinese food before grabbing donut holes and a cinnamon buttermilk at King Pin Donuts.  Both were delicious and if I wasn't so stuffed I would have eaten much more.  Glen ranked the cinnamon highest but I could swear the glazed donut holes were the best thing when I ate them for breakfast the next day.
