Jamie and I are in San Francisco for a couple days on the way down to visit my sister in Azusa,CA. Last time I was here it totally sucked, the people were rude, the weather terrible and all sorts of things that go wrong on a trip, did... This time it's been great so far! Weather is great, people friendly and we've met up with one of Jamie's old friends and his girlfriend which was loads of fun. We wandered through China town, a nice mix of touristy and gritty. Poor Jamie wasn't pleased with the smells coming out of some of the shops not catering towards tourists, but oh well. We've both found a lot to appreciate in this city, from the Black Flag loving Tranny at the lunch cafe we went ate at to the awesome Royal Tennenbaums style hotel we are staying at called the Pickwick.
Bottom line San Francisco is a great place for a quick stop through if you are a city lover. Great architecture, diverse dinning experiences, upscale and seedy, liberal yet corporate, fun walks, good mass transit, bike culture, you name it.
If you're a Portlander on your way to LA or So CAL don't miss the bigger version of your town!
