Tales of the city: Pt1

I had been going somewhat stir crazy in the weeks leading up to my trip to San Francisco. I mean, Austin isn't the biggest town on the map and even though there is so much to do here, my(car-less)self can get stuck in the mud easily. Days are wasted sitting cruising the internet, reading, watching movies and planning next big adventures when there is a whole world of now to be living in. Course, I had a hope, a suspicion, a will for things to take a turn for the active upon my trip to San Francisco that was to incorporate seeing Maximo Park, Haight and Ashbury, the Golden Gate Bridge, Daft Punk and, of course, my golden birthday...

UPDATE:

Here are the pictures from my first visit to San Francisco. I will allow them to tell the story of how I met Justin, Dan and Greg on my way to Daft Punk; the birthday weekend I then spent with them; my first baseball game; crossing the Golden Gate Bridge at 5am; the kids I met on the other side and other adventures in the city that stole my heart...
