FLASHBACK FRIDAY: San Francisco, Calif.


Since today is Friday, I decided to go back in time and revisit my short trip to San Francisco that happened over a year ago. Since I have only the best memories from that city, I have no idea how come these pictures didn't make it to the blog yet...

"Take me home", sings Taylor Swift in her latest hit. Well, this is how I feel about San Francisco. Being there was a dream come true and if I would have to pick one city in America I'd like to live in, that would be IT. I still have a lot to see, but from about 15 states I've been to so far, I think it is safe to say California would be my ideal place to be... 

But first, let me... strike gold, so I can afford the move ;)


The very first picture I took in San Francisco.  Maybe it is not perfect, but I remember exactly how excited I was to be in this beautiful city. As soon as I got off the airport shuttle, I took few steps back and this is the view I saw around the corner. You can even see Alcatraz in the middle of the picture which is cool, cause at that point I didn't even know it's right there. 


After meeting with my friend Ola shortly after I got off the bus, we took few steps further to show me this - Golden Gate Bridge. I remember the first look at THE bridge. My heart was full. It's common knowledge that Golden Gate is not always so keen to be seen, so it "hides" in a fog. Well, I got lucky. 

Even though I only had one and a half day in  San Francisco, I think I got a pretty good overlook of the city. Here are the few snapshots from my short but oh so beautiful visit.



 Fillmore.


 Painted Ladies.





Dolores Park.


Mission.


I love this capture. It reminds me of Cracow so much that I almost feel like I'm back in Poland. For those of you who know Cracow, think of Plac Wszystkich Świętych. Do you see what I'm talking about?


 Castro.


Coit Tower.


 Alcatraz.


 Golden Gate.

Until next time!

    1. I just loved every corner of this city! It's a bummer I only got to stay a day in San Francisco but I sure am coming back one day for longer. Although, I have to say I'm a little jealous you live so close to Vancouver, I have a feeling it could be my next favorite city after SF!

      Have a great weekend Lara!
