San Fransisco and Surrounding Areas

It's been kind of hard to keep this thing updated since we don't exactly have internet access whenever we need it. But the past few days have been really nice. We went down to San Fransisco twice (once on the 18th the other time on the 20th). Unfortunately we haven't been able to keep heading south and have kind of been sitting around the area of North San Fransisco for the past few days, this is because the Van hasn't been running all too smoothly and keeps misfiring. (*Insert, " told you that would happen" comment here*). So the van is in the shop right now and we have yet to go back and see how much money we need to spend on it. Hopefully this won't cut our trip short - in which case, if it would, see you soon Vancouver.
San Fransisco was pretty nice. However as a tourist in a new city, the transit system is always a little bit confusing. Also it has some interesting characters, such as naked men riding bikes, an older woman telling her little girl to "shut the fuck up", and a crackhead who throws footballs at people's faces (as James experienced first hand). Seeing as we were there for the second time on 4/20, there were a ton on potheads roaming around. This made the city just that much more interesting.
I don't really have all that much to say about it other than that it was nice, REALLY HOT (the weather here in spring is easily like summer in Vancouver), it would have been cooler if we knew our way around properly, and also a whole lot cooler if we were 21. Don't take the cable cars... We never did seeing as how they were $6, even if we only wanted to ride them for like 10 feet.
Also we didn't expect to see palm trees quite yet, but we did. It's sure starting to feel a whole lot more like Cali.

PS. We went to a place called Yolo because we saw it on the map and couldn't NOT go after seeing it... after all, YOLO. (You Only Live Once, for those of you who aren't quite up to date on the lingo).

Peace for now.
