Runabout

It is approaching my third week of my residency in this awe inspiring city by the bay. I have been a dandelion wish floating in the wind, aimlessly wandering the well traveled roads while occasionally catching a glimpse of a hidden gem. The rest of my time has been spent embodying a crazed feline after catnip zipping from one end of the city to another on bus, underground and by foot ((ran/sped walked to work this am up & down HUGE hills because the bus decided not to show up)) to take advantage of the plethora of babysitting jobs I am being offered ((BIG smile : working for four families)).


Today's post will be a photo dump of various sights I have captured on my Nikon & trusty iPhone, enjoy...


I have long been infatuated with graffiti ... daily sighting on SF muni
View of Treasure Island & Bay Bridge from the Ferry Building 

Finding music on the street nearly anywhere in the city is one of my favorite things about SF ((Ferry Building Farmer's Market))

It was Cameron's birthday & his one request was slurping oysters *bon appetite* ((Ferry Building))


So much soul ((Ferry Building))

Sunny Sunday calls for a silent disco ((Dolores Park))

My dear friend Gabrielle showing off her killer croquette skills ((Dolores Park))

I went with a few friends to the SF Zen Center for a look around the peaceful grounds & for a discussion ... one of the most interesting/peculiar experiences up here thus far

Create your own salad : mixed greens with avocado . tomato . bell pepper . grapefruit . almonds & champagne vinaigrette ((Plant Cafe Organic))

Stumbled across this luscious community garden on an unaccompanied stroll ... the sign reads "You can grow food almost anywhere in almost anything" ((I hope to begin developing my green thumb soon))

Decked out with Cat, Mon & Gabrielle ((who's chic fur I am draped in)) for an evening of grooving to one of my favorite DJs ((Flying Lotus for SF Low End Theory event)) 


The most FABULOUS leggings I have ever set eyes on 


Flying Lotus 

1015 Folsom lights from above
Festive attire & drinks for Cinco de Mayo @ my friend Amy's North Beach apartment with Gabrielle


                                                       
                                              Rooftop gatherings with stupendous sights ((Alex, Molly, Gabrielle, Marina, Jenna, Amy, Cameron))
                                                          
                                               Taking advantage of the sunshine and views of the Golden Gate ((Crissy Fields))



This precious face greets me every morning ((Sabrina 13 mo))


PS Luke comes on Sunday night & I move into my new apartment in NOPA on Tuesday ... happy, happy heart!!

    1. 1) I didn't take a good enough look at it, but there was definitely a DJ!
      2) UMMM I may have to make a trip down for that show, I've been wanting to see Animal Collective since Coachella last year with the mind blowing madness they provided
      3) I have a rooftop at my place too!!! and I must say my view is slightly better ;)
