Today,  March 21^st 2013, with a beautiful sun in the sky, we went to the art museum which holds the famous “Girl with a Pearl Earring” exhibit. We saw beautiful African and European art. The next stop was the cable cars at the Embarcadero which were cool! They were old, but very unique because it was like we were back in time. 

We did a lot of up and downs because of those big hills on which San Francisco is built.

The cable cars dropped us at Union Square. There were a lot of really fancy shops but we could find some of ‘our stores’ like H&M, Pink, and Forever 21 … 

Then we met our tour guide who was very nice, she took us to the city hall where we saw many brides and grooms.  We had the opportunity  to eat Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, SOOOOO GOOOOODDD, at the corner of Haight and Ashbury.  We took amazing pictures of the different Victorians houses on Lombard Street and in general of the fabulous landscapes!

At night we went to Chinatown where we enjoyed some shopping and we took pictures of the gate! The shops were really particular and they look cool and familiar to our Chinese friends J

The day was long but we had so much fun… at the end we ate at a famous Chinese restaurant where like a big family we sat laughing together …as you can expect from boys they started a competition of who could eat more spicy sauce …

The ride back was just awesome we stopped to take pictures of the bridge and we sang in the bus like it was a party …we still had so much energy and happiness because of the fantastic and busy day.
