This time was the longest road trip that we drove up to San Francisco, CA from Phoenix, AZ. It took almost 2days. On the way we stopped by the small town to refrain from all night driving, stayed in cheap motel type of hotel, I said "as long as there is shower I can use, I am fine!" It's just for sleeping for couple of hours, it doesn't need to be fancy! But it was actually shitty than we expected... It wasn't that cheap either. He just moved the chair to shut the front door so that no one can break in..LOL... America, you can't even imagine how dangerous the life here is, It would be much worse than I think? or Japan might be too peaceful sometimes? If you were born and raised in JP, most of countries in the world would be dangerous for you,,, but in meantime it's more passionate and exciting too! so I like both.
In second day, we finally got to SF after 4 more hours drive and checked in hotel at 3pm.
We start walking around Union Square to china town , Fisherman's Wharf.
To be honest I wasn't so impressed about those typical tourist spots, It's still ok but so crowded cz of so many tourists, and the place is trashy sometimes.
I liked the business district near the Oakland Bay Bridge much more! It's a wonderful energetic area where professional people are hanging out. I have a friend from SF, He and his wife are my best friends in Tokyo , very stylish and cool people, I was imaging they used to hang out around this area. Thanks M!!
After stayed 2nights in SF, we head for Napa Valley to try wine tasting! Second day will be in next post! ;) Continuing... :)
Hope you are not bored yet...
