City Livin'

While Nate was living it up with Tante Claire and Uncle Brian in San Carlos, Dan and I were tourists in our own city. We saw Beach Blanet Babylon, rode a cable car, went to new restaurants and walked, walked, walked.

Did you know there's a new The Grove in Soma? Or that BBB has the most insane headpieces you've ever seen? Or that you simply cannot find a cab at 9:30pm if it has rained a single drop at all in the prior 3 hours? (we ended up walking from Union/Columbus in North Beach to Union Square through the Stockton tunnel) Or that apparently beards are back in for the young emo crowd?

Waiting for the cable car, which when it came was full!

So we hung off of it, needing to tuck in when passing oncoming cars. Fun stuff :)

Our room at the Marriott Marquis (priceline baby) was fine, though it looked onto another building at close proximity. The hotel has 1499 rooms!

We trained it up and back to the city, which made it all seem much more European, and the gang met us at the station. Nate wore his choo choo shirt in honor of the train!
