Oh MAN, do I ever have so much to tell you guys.

Yesterday I took 533 photos, went from farmer’s market to food festival to eating competition and, finally, to a French bistro on the bay. I still haven’t even remotely made my way through all the photos and am about to head out on a long hike right now.
Here are a few though to give you a preview of what’s to come…

    My sister just moved back to SF from Sydney and keeps sending me iphone pics of the farmer’s market at the Ferry Building. Looks insane! I LOVE my local farmer’s markets in Hawaii but sometimes it’s nice see see stuff other than tropical fruit 🙂

    I love the second picture. My friend had an “action” shot take when she got married down south. It was her and her Bridesmaids on the beach all jumping up with their dresses on and the sunset and ocean behind them. It was awesome! I don’t understand how those photos don’t come out blurry?

    Eating competitions totally freak me out! I watched one on tv earlier in the summer where the guy ate 54 hotdogs in 10 minutes. Buns included! It boggled my mind!

    I was at the SF Street Food Festival!! Gosh, how fun was that, huh? I probably would’ve recognized you if I saw you. BUt that crowd made it impossible to even keep track of the people you were with.

    I hope you had a blast while in SF. This city I live in never ceases to amaze me. I will be in your neck of the woods for a work offsite later this week. I can’t wait to eat the awesome food in Healdsburg!!
