This past weekend Mark and I rented a Volkswagen CC and took a little road trip to San Francisco! We had a blast! here are some pictures from the trip!
On our way there, we stopped in Sparks, NV for the "Best in the West Rib Fest" This was the original purpose of the trip before we decided to keep going to SF.
I had to get a picture with the Aussie guys of course!
We tried two different kinds of ribs. these guys were the BEST by far!! Yummy!!
I also had to get some fried pickles. Unfortunately, they were disgusting and i had to throw them away. I guess Mark will just have to take me to Salt Lake to get the good ones!
We noticed that most of the people there were quite overweight. probably because they were all consuming these huge plates of potato chips
We didn't try their ribs, but i liked their armadillo grill.
Luckily they had these hand washing stations! we were so messy!!
After lunch, we hopped back in the car and drove another 3.5 hours to San Francisco! Here we are on the Bay Bridge.
We stayed with our friend Dave who lives a block away from AT&T stadium. So we bought some tickets from scalpers and went to the Giants vs. D-Backs game! Unfortunately my D-Backs lost, but it was really fun!
The next morning we got up and went to a farmers market. We tried these Vegan doughnuts which for being Vegan doughnuts were actually pretty tasty!
Then we got in the car and drove to see the Muir Woods!
On our way back we did some sight seeing. unfortunately because of the fog there was not a lot of seeing to do.
We spent the rest of the day at Fisherman's Wharf, Ghiradelli Square, eating a yummy lunch, and going down windy Lombard St.
The next day we got up and drove to San Jose so Mark could show me where he used to live. We had lunch at the restaurant he used to be a server at and then drove up the coast back to SF.
After a nice nap at Dave's place we drove to Oakland to see the temple.
After the temple we ate some delicious goat-cheese pizza that was to die for!! i want some right now!
We had a great trip! Thanks for being such a great host Dave! we loved your apartment and you were a fantastic tour guide!

You guys must really like ribs!
Looks like a fun trip.
That's my temple!!! Aw you make me so homesick. San Francisco always has such horrible fog. You went to all the right places. I'm glad you had such a great time!
Such a fun post and looks like a great trip. I laughed when I saw you went from the PETA nightmare, meat lovers heaven bbq feast to eating vegan doughnuts.
Cool! I love your fabulous black and white shirt. Where in the world did you get it?
