What's with the weather?

The weather in San Francisco is a little crazy - global warming strikes again!

I'm too lazy for a full post but the past few days have been very busy. I've been to:
1. Wednesday - Golden Gate Bridge - where I walked across it and then down to Sausalito. Very pretty view (amazing actually but I'm too tired to find good words to describe it - pictures will help!) but I'm really not fit enough for this as my back was pretty sore for days after this. Definitely worth it though... I had my first American hamburger there, not very good but the view from the window of the cafe was exquisite.
For dinner we had a nice feast at home that Carmen made. Chicken, salad and a pasta thing, really delicious!

2. Thursday - tour of the gay area called "the Castro" - interested and informative about some history of the area, but I came away thinking how strange it is how strong the sense of community, belonging and labelling everything is here.
I also checked out the San Fran Museum of Modern Art and was lucky enough to be here for the Frida Kahlo exhibition. Very intense but fascinating.

3. Thursday night - Sunday - road trip with girls from exchange! More on this soon, I'm too tired right now.
