CA was great, the weather is cool (60-65 F). Build a city on a mountain and that's pretty much what San Fran looks like. I can't believe how steep the roads are. I remember walking outside in the morning and not noticing anyone jogging or anything which seemed wierd to me. But then after a few minutes of walking uphill, I realized why. That is extremely tiring.

Some roads are so steep, that buses aren't supposed to go on them or else they'll get stuck when the road becomes level again. Guess what, I saw a bus get stuck, and it was pretty hilarious. There is huge Chinatown and I didn't realize there were so many orientals in San Fran. Columbus and Broadway is the scene for night life and it was definitely cool to hang out there. There is always something to do and people to meet in the city. The lifestyle is so different from FL. People are so isolated here, but in big cities there is alot more social interaction and mostly friendly people which is very cool.

I met up with Prashant and a buddy of his, as well as hung out with some others attending the wedding. We had a great time going around the city. The wedding was also fun. It's the first Jewish wedding I've been to, and was definitely an interesting experience. We did alot of dancing.
