usa: day four, off to san francisco

, , No Comments
i'm tipsy right now.
but that's not the point.

today we woke up at 8:30am to get shuttled to LAX
with all the rumours of the nightmares there, we decided to leave at 9am to catch out 12:50am
you know, 1 hour to get there (for the traffic) and two hours to get through security
we ended up three hours early
traffic annd security were a breeze~
GOODBYE LA, i'm not really gonna miss you that much xD

now i'm using the free wifi at usa hostels in san francisco
and loving the hills and architecture
we caught the tram from the airport to the BART station and then took the train/subway to powell street station. janice was pretty much impressed all the way throughout. To cherry, it's really similar to HK xD
we struggled to get our stuff up the three blocks to the hostel because, dagnabit, sanfran is really hilly
got stopped by a black dude who gave us directions and tips. turned out he wanted tips.
when will we learn?
anyway, finally gott our stuff up to usa hostels and YAY no TV and it's supposed to be a shared female dorm for 4; but right now, we only have the three of us. good stuff.
at least there's a heater and we have our own ensuite!

after we settled in and locked everything away, in case a fourth female got stuck with us,
we headed back down to union square. took a few pictures but not that much, since i got warned not to show albus all over the place. (i.e. by the black dude who wanted a tip)
we walked around a bit, finally got our mobiles set up, and window shopped a little
ate dinner in the food court below Westfield SanFran - SO SO SO much bigger and brighter than our westfields. just...wow. if i had limiteless luggage and a personal chaffeur to the airport...yeah.
had some nice soup and cobb salad from the supermarket where you can just...buy ready to eay food.
was fascinated.

then we got a flyer for a comedy club night but when we walked past there, it was SOOOOOOO dodge
like homeless people all over the place
so we decided to skip it and just go back to the hostel
we went karaoke night instead
there was one flamboyant filo dude in green who was SOOOOOOOOO into karoake and really quite a good singer. but lol, he was sooooooooooooo into karaoke, he brought his own DVDs to karoake night at the hostel. i mean, wow.
sang a few songs. for each song sung, we got a beer.
i drank one whole beer.
hence, the tipsyness.
pretty sure janice has my red face on her camera.




yay.
