San Francisco, The City

Our trip to San Francisco can really be summed up in just two words:

We walked.

And I loved every second of it. It was such a refreshing change. Getting around on your own two feet is empowering, and the fresh air was invigorating. We didn’t even see a trace of the famous fog – I’m sure that walking in that is not nearly as enjoyable as the lovely sun we saw the entire time we were there.

What I loved more than anything was the charming-ness of it all. Of the sweet Victorian houses that come in bright candy colors, timeless and modern all at the same time. The terrain that reminds me of quaint Italian hillside towns. The adorable coffee shops and the luxurious bakeries that have made an art of the mundane. The vast expanses of parks and places to stop and enjoy the vistas of sprawling city meeting water meeting mountains.

Mmmm…yep. Tony Bennett sings one thing true…

I left my heart in San Francisco.

Have a fabulous adventure this weekend, my friends!
