I came to San Francisco with my parents when I was a young girl many times. I loved the cable cars, and I loved Chinatown, too. I liked going up the hills, but I was very afraid when we went down the hills.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a college student, I came to study in San Francisco by myself. I loved the beautiful city. I liked to walk for hours. Golden Gate Park and the beaches near Golden Gate Bridge were my favorite places. I didn't have money for restaurants, but I liked to go shopping in little stores and cook in my apartment. I loved my first days in San Francisco as an adult.

ReplyDeleteSecond day,I got up very early,but I felt very cool in the morning and the air was very fresh.I went to Golden Gate Park at 8:30 that morning.I saw a lot of big trees and amazing landscape.Some people did excises that they liked.I always like to go jogging,so I have been walked around the park for 4 hours.And met a couple of peoples were very kind to me.
Third day,my parents and I visited famouse Golden Gate Bridge.I thought I was very appreciate to that red was painted on the bridge.And it was amazing to cross the bridge to the Vista.Then we could see the Downtown.Oh,it was beautiful scene we looked at.Nice architecture under the blue sky.
