What A Weekend!

This past weekend was AMAZING! 

Not only am I in an awesome city with thousands of things to do and see, but I'm also getting great work experience and making new friends.

On Saturday, I took a tour on a double decker bus. Classic tourist move, I know. But it was actually kinda great. We saw almost all of the city and I learned a lot of interesting facts about locations and buildings (I'm into the kinda stuff). Add tour guide leader to the list of my potential jobs.

So to make this weekend even better, Jake called me Thursday night and told me he was gonna try to fly in on Saturday morning! I was so excited, but like most stand-by flights, he wasn't able to make it :(

While on our tour of the city, I got a twitter notification and this is what it said:

Yes, I realize that I DO have the best boyfriend ever. This was such a great surprise!!

Jake and I spent the whole day Sunday exploring the city. First we went to the Haight Ashbury Street Festival, which was interesting, as are all things on Haight street. 

Next we went to the beach. It's not very warm here so we just looked, but I made Jake put his feet in the water because it was his first time to see the Pacific Ocean. 

What a cutie ;)

We ended the day by going on a romantic date in Little Italy. I've decided that this may be one of my favorite spot in San Francisco. Italian food and gelato? What more could a girl ask for??

After dinner, we decided to take a hike up one of the ridiculously steep hills, and I'm so glad we did!

The views from the top of the hill were amazing! I think we found our dream location (we'll be able to afford it in about 20 years!). The view of the hills and the bay were absolutely amazing.

It was sad to see Jake go at the end of the weekend, but like last week, this one has been very busy.

Hope you all had a great weekend as well and tomorrow another one is here!
