My Sister Visits San Francisco! (Photos)
Last week, my sister visited San Francisco. It was her first time flying, leaving the US South, in a big city, riding in a taxi or bus, seeing the pacific ocean, going to a building over 4 stories and playing Guitar Hero. It was a week of firsts for her and there were too many firsts to list!
It wasn’t a full week though. She was here Thursday afternoon through Monday morning but My Nike+ shoes say that we walked a total of 15 miles and my CityCarShare account says we drove over 75 miles and we never once left San Francisco or North Bay. Yeah, it was a huge week of adventure and the both of us snapped over 1,000 photos so narrowing it down to less than 200 was a bit of a challenge. The entire photoset is here but I wanted to caption a few of my favorites. I’ll let the photos tell the story. An interactive full-screen slide show is at the bottom of the post.
