Expired Fuji Neopan 400

 

 

Pacific Coast

Chinese New Year

What happens when you make a Saturday trip to the city and there's a celebration in the streets?  You make a detour!  Luckily, this one in particular coincided with the Chinese New Year celebration and parade in San Francisco.  The excitement was immeasurable since I had thought that it had been the weekend before.  Traipsing through the streets of Chinatown, here are some of the sights to be seen.

Neopan City

After a particularly arduous semester of graduate school, I have been able to finish and develop the roll of Fuji Neopan that had been too long ignored.  These were taken over the last several months of residing in The Bay.

got woods?

Excursion to Muir Woods not too long ago.  Found time in a moment of procrastination to edit and post some snaps.
 

Port of Wonder

The California Academy of Sciences was one of the stops made during my sister's visit not too far back.  This multidisciplinary museum is located just across from the de Young in Golden Gate Park, and seems as though it has risen from the grassy hills itself.  Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano, The Academy is an all encompassing scientific wonderland.  Under its roof, the academy houses a rainforest ecosystem, a planetarium, aquarium, a natural history museum, theater, and thousands of live animals, as well as the requisite over priced restaurant, cafe, and gift shop.  We began our journey in the rainforest.

Into the Abyss

This past Saturday my sister and I jaunted into the city to take in some sights.  She, having never been to The Bay, was in for quite an adventure.  All morning long  clouds rolled in and made themselves quite comfortable while we made our rounds through Golden Gate Park, visiting the de Young and Japanese Tea Garden.  Once we began to make our way North, it was clear that some of San Francisco's famous fog would be keeping us company on our visit to The Golden Gate Bridge.  

In an Instant

Berkeley and San Francisco in an instant.  From the Albuquerque Sunport to the Berkeley Hills, and several spots in between.
