My last day on my own and the last opportunity for San Francisco sightseeing - I spent the morning finishing up some work and decided I’m better off ubering to the Golden Gate Bridge Park so I have time to walk back before dark. Not making that mistake again! Just before calling one, I treated myself to a few oysters and another clam chowder (very bacon-y!) in a very highly place right across from the Airbnb. I sat at the bar and mapped up the potentially interesting things to see once we hit the road tomorrow. In the Uber, I...
Day 4: as the sun sinks low, the darkness finds its way

Another sunny day! Justin was off to the conference and I got up pretty much around the same time. Today’s plan involved a lot of walking so I wanted to make sure to get everything in. I set my direction the exact opposite way of my final destination because I *needed* a sushi burrito. That’s right, a burrito of sushi. The wrap is nori and rice but the inside is various sushi ingredients and you eat it like a burrito. It was glorious. I got overwhelmed at the place with all the amazing food on the menu so I also...
Day 3: every turn I take, every trail I track, every path I make, every road leads back

Sending Justin off on his first day of the conference, I stayed in bed for a little while. An hour or so in, I receive a text from him. His first day, first hour, and some shmuck behind him spilled hot coffee all down his back and didn't really acknowledge Justin with much of an apology. Grumbling, Justin went off to get cleaned up, found a new shirt (swag!), and on his way back to the keynote, got locked out. Eventually finding his way in, he found his seat was taken so you can imagine the messages I was getting....
Day 2: though the truth may vary; this ship will carry our bodies safe to shore

All the seals! Best breakfast in SF, Golden Gate bridge, beautiful walk along the coast, a full tour of Alcatraz, and best damn clam chowder in the world.
Day 1: in the night, when the shadows come back to life
2 Moose on the Loose California San francisco YOLO
While still recovering from our crazy trip this summer, we got a little bit stir crazy with sitting at home and going back to "normal". So when an opportunity arose for Justin to go to San Francisco for a conference, we decided to #YOLO hard, make the most of it and spend another 2 weeks in a car together driving the Pacific Coast. Because why not? Bonus to the fact that timing works out and we're meeting 10 friends in LA for a musical festival at the end of the 2 weeks. It's a trip we've been talking about for years, and if we keep saying next time, it seems to never happen.So earplugs in, Advil packed, car rented, let's go!
