Saturday:
We slept in and then walked around Japan town and had some great sushi. I decided to jump out of my comfort zone (which is getting just rolls) and get sashimi. It tasted great, but they put way too much wasabi on it that steam was coming out of my ears! After that I went shopping at H&M while Wes ran some errands. The line's were so long, it took about 45 minutes to even try on clothes. The rest of the evening we went to a BBQ inside, because there are no yards in San Fran :)
Sunday:
We rented a car from Hertz, which is a great place, but you will save about $20 dollars a day if you reserve your car ahead of time. After we got the car we started driving down highway 1 along the coast. First, we stopped in Santa Cruz and ate at this small little pizza place called Tony and Alba's. The second town we stopped in was Carmel. The town was hoppin' with people, kids, dogs, shopping, etc... Here is a picture of Wes and I on the beach at Carmel:
The third place we went to was Monterey. It seemed like a great place to live. It is also known as "The Language Capital of the World" with the U.S. Armed Forces Defense Language Institute. The fourth city we stopped in was Hollister. With there being a trendy store named after this town, I thought it would be a hip beach town, but it was actually a small farming town.
We then drove back to San Fran, through San Jose, Sunnyvale and Redwood City.
Monday:
Being pretty tired after our long adventure on Sunday, we drove around the Golden Gate Park and ate lunch at The Beach Chalet. This restaurant over looks the ocean and is at the very end of Golden Gate Park. After we ate, we went to two different look out points and I took some great pics. Here are a few:
