Clang, clang, clang...


Some random thoughts on San Francisco so far...


1. The above picture has left me confused, yet oddly intrigued.

2. Within 7 hours I already really love this city. Ok, maybe it's just an unhealthy crush so far.

3. Bruschetta + vermicelli with eggplant and roasted peppers, and a few glasses of montepulciano makes me a happy camper.

4. I kind of enjoy dining by myself....is that weird?

5. Tosca Cafe is a bar here with a 1920s design aesthetic, and a Wurlitzer jukebox filled with only jazz, Patsy Cline and (umm oddly enough) opera. It is where I would spend all of my time if I lived out here.

6. I love the sound of electricity running through the ground in the city to power the cable cars. It feels as if the city is somehow having a dialogue with the world around it.

Ok, more tomorrow, including more photos than just Asians.com. Sleep beckons...

I love the Asians.com awning. I went to the web address Asians.com, though, and there was nothing there!

I think perhaps someone doesn't understand what ".com" means.

Yeah, I also forgot to mention that it looked like a restaurant or nightclub or something (it was closed with no lights on, so I couldn't quite see what was up).

It was, however, also next door to superterrifchappyspecialrestaurantplace.net.
