San Francisco
When we finally reached San Francisco, the sky was already dark. And we were all soooooo tired. Best part is the hotel that we booked, changed their name, and we had a hard time finding it. To make the situation worst, the weather was so cold that when I step out of the car to source for the hotel, I was shivering from the freezing wind. After we parked our car and settling down in hotel, we were so tired that we decided to rest. Initially wanting to buy a cake to celebrate Frances birthday, and the guys went to source while she bathed. But mayb cos its too late, couldnt find even a slice .. lol .. so we had to postpone the celebration. The 2nd morning, we head to our first stop, wanting to see the famous Golden Gate Bridge, only to realise its so foggy that almost the whole bridge couldnt be seen. And the weather is still soooo cold. Goodness ... isnt it summer then?? 10-11degree for summer ..?? We were shivering and jumping when taking photos, had to hide our hands inside pocket
Squeezing to keep warm?? haha ..
The almost disappearing Golden Gate Bridge at background 

Do-Re-Mi-Fa ?? Hehe ..
The $5 Dim Sum buffet at Chinatown. Was quite worth it .. food is normal, but well, we had our stomach filled =) And we had a 'summan' as we didnt put enough parking credits .. -_-" But we didnt pay for it til now ...
Public Toilet at Twin Peak. This place also another super cold place ... wind was suuuuuper strong.
Me and grace hiding behind the wall and dustbin, from the strong strong wind.
Suppose to be able to see the whole San Frans from Twin Peak, but was so foggy tat day that we see nothing much .. btw, San Frans is very small only .. so yah, can see from Twin Peak
Another special feature of San Frans is that slopes are everywhere .. when i say slope, its really steep. Driving there like playing roller coaster .. haha .. Living in San Frans can be quite healthy, haha .. if u dont own a car, walk up and down the slopes a few times daily .. good exercise wor

At near evening, we made another trip to a scenic spot and luckily, the fog cleared and we had a nice view of the Golden Gate Bridge =)
Thats the thickness of each cable that supported the Bridge
Nice group photo, but bit dark
There's a path that lead us up the bridge where a passanger way was available for us to walk. Some people tried walking from 1 end to the other .. haha .. we were too lazy .. so just walked a bit take photo then U-Turn liao .. 
City Hall in the Day and Night. 
Our dinner, Fish & Chips and Calamari, bought from Fisherman Wharf. Though we manage to find a parking lot there, the dinner place was full of ppl, so we decide to dabao and eat on the car instead.
Who is more demure here?? hahhaha ..
Photo of the day again (**drums roll**) hahaha ... Maria and her maid, Molly ... lol :p
A group photo in our hotel room. haha ... fred looks quite squashed in here .. lol
Went to Cheesecake Factory finally, and they're famous for their Godiva Cheesecake. Haha .. we all ordered a slice each + a drink and thats our brunch. And even til dinner, we're still quite full.
Haha .. sinful heaps of whip cream and cheesecakes ...

French Toast that Molly ordered .. was too full from the cheesecake tat the French Toast had to be dabao away .. Icant really rem the taste of it .. haha .. too obsessed with the cheesecake liao
Aiyo ... so sweet again .. 你一口,我一口 -_-" ... lol
Hmm .. weird, how come my face like so red here .. machiam sunburn ..
Heez .. we applied our kiasu spirit there in San Frans =P. While shopping, me and Frances spotted a huge lorry parked by the roadside, giving out free greentea samples. Unlike singapore, who give u sample to try in those mini mini cups, here give samples in packs of bottles .. haha .. and guess what i saw, the locals have more kiasu spirit then us .. haha ..
Forever 21 outlet .. I fell in love with this brand since this usa trip .. lucky there are branches in singapore =)
Macy's Shopping center .. thats where the Cheesecake factory in San Frans was located
At Pier 39, yatch club
Lombard Street, the crookiest street on earth. Its said to travel from top to bottom, it'll take around 30mins .. lol .. we didnt try lah, only take photos. But a lot of tourist really go there to just try driving down, tink the residents there also sian, everyday open door, outside flooded with tourist .. haha
