San Francisco: Days 1 & 2

Here is the well-documented first half of our trip. We are currently resting from walking 3 miles for breakfast this morning before walking {again} to the Golden Gate Bridge {we are determined to NOT pay for a taxi so that we can eat yummy food}. No one can say we are not staying in shape here.

{FRIDAY}

We had a wonderful flight AND packed lightly so we could carry on. Two points for being female and being able to to this.

We had barely gotten here when I proclaimed to Colin that he needed to feed me. Now.

He quickly bought tickets for BART {public transportation train} to take us to Union Square. I love traveling with this boy. Nothing scares him and he can read a map like it is nobody's business. So we immediately began our aerobic workout once in San Fran and climbed hills comparable to those in New Zealand with our suitcases up to the apartment. Luckily we will only have to go down the next time we have our bags. We love our little place, but as anyone can tell you if they know me well, I am a total smell-person. This place smelled fine, just a spicy smell I wasn't a fan of. No worries, nothing a little Febreeze and fresh flowers couldn't fix.

After a quick lunch at a corner cafe that served both turkey sandwiches and Bento Boxes, we decided to go exploring by running. Duh. HOLY HILLS! I swear I am going to go up an entire pant size because of the size of my aheeemmm {toned} legs by the time we get home.

We later had drinks and crispy potato fingerlings at Thermador and waited to eat late for our belated anniversary dinner {that we didn't have reservations for so we took a 9:45 pm slot} Sons and Daughters. We likey.

Both delish. Hilghly recommended. We finished eating dinner at close to 2 am College Station time so we passed out when we got home.

{SATURDAY}

We woke up early to walk down to the Pier and partake in the infamous Farmer's Market. Oh my gosh, this is what heaven is like, we are SURE of it.

We ate our weight in samples and then headed to breakfast at The Plant, a completely organic cafe that was incredible.

Colin had a Breakfast Burrito with Fennel Apple juice and I had a juice blend of carrots, oranges, beets, apples, and lemons with granola, yogurt, and fresh fruit.

We then found ourselves BACK at the Farmer's Market picking up some fruit we absolutely could not live without and headed to Sightglass Coffee - a place so legit they only used whole milk and I didn't even need sugar in my cappuccino.

((we also took my favorite picture to date))

After visiting a few more places on our to-do list {WALKING} of course, we stopped at Tartine Bakery {which Colin is obsessed with} for lunch.

((Pick your jaw up off the floor and stop drooling.))

We also stopped in to Samovar, a nice tea cafe to rest our legs and feet on the way back to our apartment.

It was a DELICIOUS as it looks.

THEN we showered and headed back to The Plant's Lunch/Dinner Cafe (another building next door) since we loved breakfast so much and wanted to eat on the Pier.

I got the Grilled King Salmon.

Colin got the BBQ Chicken Pizza with Apple Chicken Sausage.

AND we concluded Saturday's treks with a grand total of.........

13.7 miles.
