buena vista



buena vista park! what a lovely little fairy-tale-forest-island! smack dab in the middle of the city; just a little uphill walk from haight and ashbury. i was so in love with this little park. there were amazing trees and wild fennel and i'm sure there must have been some parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme in there somewhere...








a lovely little oasis in the city and a nice escape from the intense sunshine! we had pretty unpredictable weather while we were in san francisco, but coming from vancouver, we were prepared: four seasons in one day! it was rainy and overcast most of the time, but when the sun came out it was insane! white hot intensity! hello california! !!!

i didn't take many photos this day, we just wandered around and did a bit of shopping (i left empty handed) and basically just bummed around all day. i mean, we were in california, right? we thought we'd just chill for a bit. that night we watched the epic james spader film; tuff turf! shane didn't like it at allllll! alice and i swooned over james spader and the general awesomeness that is tuff turf. it's not a good movie per se, but it is AMAZING. just watch it and you will understand.
