Day 16-17: Franciscan Hills and Prayers to St. Anthony

I love this mural; painted by Peter Collins.

Cute homes in the Sunset District. I also had some of the best dim sum of my life nearby.

The steepness of the hills took a while to get used to-- yeesh!

There it is!


Strolling through the Mission...




No luck on the apartment search today... so we strolled around Golden Gate Park a for a little while.




Heading back to the East Bay...


We were parked across from a park in Berkeley when I snapped this shot. We had been considering another rogue night in the car to keep expenses low, but the nearby park was full of a combination of drug-addicts and homeless lifestylers that you certainly never seen in New York. Not to belittle the strife of many homeless people in the Bay Area, but it seems like many young kids our age decide to life off the grid and in the parks. We ended up finding a last minute Air B&B in Oakland...

The next morning. Our wonderful hosts, Morganne & Cesar, made us feel at home and helped in our search, eventually narrowing our search down to the Oakland area. Their sweet son, Valentino, and the garden view were certainly highlights (whoops, no photos!)
