San Francisco - West Coast Dreams




  I'm doing something a little different here. I'm daydreaming. I've found a new love in San Francisco. And I can now relate to the infamous Tony Benett song, "I left my heart in San Francisco," because it really feels like I did. Even though we were only there for a short time, I remember feeling so happy.

Due to my extreme jet lag I woke up everyday at dawn, and went for a walk by Fort Mason and Marina Blvd; and realized that the entire city did the same. The amount of people starting their day with a jog by the water astounded me. I felt like I wanted to be a part of their cool SF Cali club.

After my walk I'd return to our amazing hotel (a refurbished chocolate factory!!) to have my usual delicious granola. At the topping bar I'd add pumpkin seeds, coconut flakes, raspberries and blueberries. I tried recreating this elsewhere but it wasn't as fabulous. I'm convinced that everything in San Fran is just better! 

Here are a few pictures to prove my theory.
