San Francisco!


Hey guys! We are in San Francisco!! This morning we headed to down town. Everyone was on time! Well good job guys! :D First, we were dropped off at Pier 39 where we had shopping and had a dinner yesterday. Today we walked to the point to get the cable car. It was awesome and it was like riding a roller coaster when we up to the hill.

The view from top of the hill was amazing!!!  The hill is the top of Lombard Street, the world's curviest street. We started to walk to Union Square. We saw many nice buildings, and people walking through the streets, and it was fun to experience the city beyond the bus' window. We had fun with shopping in there. Yeah that was fun!


 




 





After we walked around down town and ate lunch, we rode on the bus with a tour guide lady, and headed to City Hall. She knew many facts about San Francisco and we enjoyed learning about it! After we visited there, we went to Twin Peaks! OH MY GOSH! The view was so awesome and beautiful!! Normally in San Francisco, it's foggy and not very hot, but today was sunny and a nice day, so we could see all of San Francisco including the Golden Gate Bridge (except for when the fog finally came)! :D



Then we headed to The Haight-Ashbury district which is noted for its role as a center of the 1960s hippie movement. We walked around and had shopping in there. There were many unique shops and people!  There were lots of vintage stores!


Then finally we went to the china town! China town here we come!! :D we looked around and shopped in there till dinner. There was a bunch of Chinese stores and it was cool! Of Course we ate Chinese food as a dinner!! We used chopsticks. Although some students didn’t know how to use them, they learned how to use them and we enjoyed having dinner!
