our fun guide to San Francisco DAY 2

23.3.12

The Ferry Building
This is an old ferry building that was remodeled into a hip mall, filled with all sorts of shops and restaurants. If you are in town on a Tuesday or a Thursday make sure to go to the farmers market right outside of the building. Everything from vegetables, cheese and flowers. 
Don't these colors make you want to start eating your veggies ;) or at least make a butter dip for the  artichokes ;)

i wish i took some of these home 
a whole shop of different types of mushrooms
and a ton of fresh seafood

DeYoung Museum 
We went there after the ferry building, if you are planning on doing it along with other things make sure to start early. There is also a science academy across the street, which looks super fun, but we didn't have time to go there. 
there were a lot of these cute little dudes
old things are always the best
Sean is studying interior design so we have a lot of pictures of all of the furniture in the museum, but i  wish we could take a few of the chairs home

Japanese Tea Garden
The garden is next to the museum, super green and luscious. Probably takes an hour at the most, we went while it was raining so we didn't stay that long. 

fun little features like these are throughout the place, including coy ponds and a gift shop

Japan town
Japan town is just a small section of San Fran with lots of sushi places, restaurants, japanese dollar store ($1.50), and bakeries. 

2 more days of San Fran and then I will be on to something new. But seriously how can you not love that city. 
Have a wonderful weekend everyone. It has been really sunny here during the week, so i am crossing my fingers for a bright day tomorrow. 
Love, 
Meg

  4. Hi Meg, thank you for entering the giveaway. Unfortunately I cannot count you in unless you follow the blog. Sometimes blogger doesn't complete the process, so if you tried, then you'll have to do it again. x
