~San Francisco Part 2~

Day 3
We had pancakes,omelets and toast for brunch at Sears fine food.The pancakes there were pretty good but the three stacks were a bit too much..don't know why,but I got a token from the diner. After that we walked to the Museum of Modern Art. I couldn't understand nor appreciate art,but since I'm here,a place well known for arts,I figured I should have a look around. After MoMa we went into a few more galleries,some which finally makes sense unlike modern art,before we hopped on the bus to Fisherman's Wharf.

Fisherman's Wharf is another tourist spot in San Francisco. Took some pictures at the pier,saw some pretty interesting gifts like musical gift bags etc. Went to Ghiradelli to look for chocolates as well,learned about the Hooters diner where apparently the waitresses wear very short mini skirts and low-cut tees. Saw more galleries before we stopped by Burger Kings for dinner. Oh,there was this very cool place call Musee Mechnique whereby the games from 1800's were available. It had a coin slot and when you put in a quarter, the puppets will play,the clockwork circus would come alive etc. Pretty interesting. Night at FW is pretty cold because it's near the sea,so it's good to take note of that if one were to visit there. Fact is, the whole of SF's weather is hard to predict,it could be warm and sunny in the afternoon,but can get pretty chilly at night. It's pretty interesting to walk along the street and see some people wearing jackets while some are wearing singlets with shorts*.*

After Fisherman's Wharf, we went to Em's friends place for an arts workshop. Interesting thing I noticed was the intercom of the apartment which is connected to their phone,so that if you are not at home and your intercom is connected to your handphone,you can still buzz the person at the door in.Really cool.Well,we managed to go in his friends place after 10 mins and it's the first time I get to experience what an art work shop was.Apparently it's where a group of art students gather and when one of them poses the rest of them starts drawing the model.It's pretty hard for on person to model actually,having to pose for 10mins staying still..it takes lots of will power,especially if you are doing a difficult pose. So yea,it was fun looking at them pose and sketch..

When we got back it was already pretty late at night but here's the amazing thing in the US,you could do grocery shopping even in the middle of the night. So I did just that,I went grocery shopping with Em and CE at midnight..there was so much stuff lining up at the store that I was so tempted to buy most of them to bring them back to Japan..Gosh,if only I have a grocery like that in Japan..grocery shopping was fun,and by the time I got back it was already 1am..end of day 3^^
