Fisherman's Wharf


My first boat ride...YAY!!! It went by too fast, man when you really enjoy something time flys by quick! Mark and I did an hour and thirty minutes ECO Boat Tour. I think next time I would like to rent a boat for a whole day and just watch the sunset in the middle of the bay.







It's crazy how fast San Francisco can go from crazy fog to beautiful clear blue sky.

China Town

Taking a trip to San Francisco, I suggest visiting China Town...I would also recommend you bringing a jacket gets pretty windy. It's cute because everything is literally Chinese the buildings, food, merchandise, the cops that were down there were even Chinese! It's also a one way one car lane so there's not much traffic and easier to cross the streets back and forth to shops.
Don't be in a rush to buy, a lot of the stores sell the same stuff at different prices! You should also bring cash on you some shops require you to spend a certain amount of money to use card. 

Be careful because if you break anything they consider it "Sold To You!" 















The End,
          Of A Happy Day!

Castello Di Amorosa

Means...

Castle Of Love


So if you want to find Love you better make your reservation now....no I'm just playing.




August 4th is the day Mark and I went on our first date, so it's been exactly a year since we have known one another! Mark told me today: "wow it's been a whole year in which I have thought about you every day". Then he says "it took only 3 tries to find the perfect girl for me, I didn't think it would of been this easy to find you"... He's such a sweetheart, oh how I love this man.


So anyways I decided to take him out on Sunday August 4th for like a pre - anniversary thing. He's been wanting to go to this Castello Di Amorosa, which is a real castle so we were really excited! A real castle which was designed as if it had been built long ago, nothing like that Knights of the round table dinner crap. Castello di Amarosa is a cool place, but its primary service is harvesting its vinyards and making high quality wines. We scheduled a wine tasting and a guided tour of the castle. I honestly believe that if you don't do the guided tour it's not worth going. I mean I hate wine, I think its so disgusting, but I still enjoyed the tour just as much as wine lovers. 
From Beginning to End...


     Can't start a day without Starbucks!

           And the Adventure Begins! 


















               King & Queen chairs

              Grape presser for wine

           Now a days Grape Presser 


                  3,000 dollar wines 





            Knights Armor & Weapons






                   Torture Chamber




The Castle was two stories down, each floor filled with wine barrels and bottles 
























Then when we were about to leave we see Joakim Noah, who plays in the NBA for the Chicago Bulls. Mark knew he looked familiar, so he went up to him and asked him, "Are you Joakim Noah?", and he said yeah.
Afterwards Mark says "Man when I was little I Hated that guy". 
 Mark picked some grapes from the vineyard. 



The End of a Happy Day!
