Day 1:
had difficulties finding transport down to SF...cuz we need a big SUV but den due to the last min booking we made...there's like none available til late...so we spent the whole morning finding diff car rental companies to enquire abt SUV...in the end..we finalli gotten 1 SUV ard 12 plus...but tt's like spoil our plan of leaving at 9...thus in the end..we oni began our drive at 2.30pm...
our first stop was actually monterey...which is abt 100 plus miles south of San Fran... we took this highway 1 which was a coastal route which was super scenic...along the way, we see like wineries, mountains...and even the pacific oceans! all the mountain roads were so damn long and windy la...it makes me feels like i'm in the initial D movie lor...trying to make all the twists n turns... but it was damn fun... we had like a few photo stops along the way and took alot of funny fotos...ahaha... we ended up in monterey oni at ard 10plus 11... in which we had dinner at Denny's...everyone was like so tired from being cooped up in the car too...so we juz had a quick dinner and went off to SF... good thing the "hotel" was decent..big enuf for 5 of us in the room...
Day 2:
our day in san fran todae is set to be a city exploratory tour... we went down to Fishermen's wharf, Pier 39, took a cruise in the Bay of san francisco to see the famous Bay Bridge, Golden Gate Bridge and even Alcatraz island, had some yummy clam chowder, did abit of shopping, went down the world's crookedest road, Lombard street(which is like an extended S-course), and had dinner at this super wonderful chinese restaurant(their chinese food is simply superb...) basically that's about all we did...and it's actually quite alot lor...
Day 3:
Day 3 was to make our way back to LA and to go Yosemite National Park... Yosemite houses one of the largest granite valleys and also have the Giant Redwood Sequoia trees that are thousands of years old... the view was superbly brilliant... when you are standing in front of valleys and trees that are at least a hundred times older than you... it makes you realize the insignificance of yourself in this world...but the impact that you do can harm the world so much...it reminds us the importance of conservation....i'm not a pro-enviromentalist at heart... but i still find it in me to love nature...i love the peace, the serenity of it... i kinda looking forward to seeing grand canyon... haha...afterall, it's one of the 7 wonders of the world...
well...okiez...here's some pics for u folks! enjoy the view~
