The City at 10:37 PM

Had to catch up with schoolwork as I neglected it this weekend when my dad came in to town with my cousin and we headed up to San Fran. Lara’s parents were also in town so it was fun to see everyone for this President’s Day weekend.

After showing my family around Santa Clara (not much to do), we headed up to San Fran (where there is tons to do). We parked in Chinatown and our parking spot came with its own fortune:

We walked through Chinatown, where Brandon said he felt like a giant, through Little Italy, which has a couple of nice churches (this being one of them:)

One thing my dad insisted on was getting clam chowder at the pier so that was our first order of business:

We also went down to Pier 39 to see how the sea lions were getting along and got to see the ones too lazy to make the trip. Sometime in the fall, the sea lion clan that hung out at Pier 39 disappeared. Some say they went with the fishing, which has not been so good around the bay, and it had something to do with climate change.

My pops and Brando had to head back to catch a plane, so I hung around with Lara and her parents and did the touristy thing. Here is Lara looking cute outside Ghirardelli:

This weekend is my birthday and Barrister’s Ball, which is like a law school prom. I will make sure to have a good post next weekend as well.
