Day 3
Day 3 was awesome. In the morning I went downtown on the N Judah Muni line after getting the 44 bus and decided to visit in Westfield SF in order to buy a hat to keep my hair in place. Never has there been created a more shameful waste of a city block, not only was it practically empty but everything was so generic and boring, it flies in the face of everything that San Francisco stands for and promotes. The only exciting things were the spiral escalators. Whilst on one of these escalators I phoned Lowteck to organise having lunch with him and Lincoln. I got the 7 bus up to Haight and Masonic and waited, and waited and eventually got a call saying they’d gone the wrong way and to walk towards them. When we met up we went for lunch at an odd Mexican restaurant with hammered copper everywhere and I had my second burrito which was just as good as the first.
After this I bought some postcards I want to frame from Booksmiths on Haight and then we walked up to Beuna Vista Park and oh my word it really is a beuna vista once your expel the energy to get to the top. It was amazing. We sat down near there for a while and chatted and watched some bees finding novel ways to travel then back to Lowteck’s place to wait for Keller. When Keller arrived we went out for Chinese and I had another culinary adventure having Dim Sum for the first time and some crazy seafood nest thing with miniature octopi (which taste lovely) before returning back to Balboa and 7th full of squid and dumplings and ready to turn in after another great day.
