Before leaving San Francisco, Kelly and I had some time to kill so we wandered around a bit, visited Union Square one last time, and had lunch at the little cafe that’s at one end of the square. Going from downtown to the airport to the gate went smoothly, but then as we sat down, we were told that our flight was delayed while SFO’s air traffic control figured out how to get our plane on the ground. We were delayed about 40 minutes. I realize that SFO is a big international airport, but it seems that they’re too big for their own good.
We got back to PDX in decent time, and holy moly is it raining out! Ran to the store for some provisions and soon it’ll be time for dinner, then laundry, then relaxing before work tomorrow.
To recap the trip: It was a really fun mini-vacation that felt longer than it was (which is a good thing). We ate good food, walked a lot, and saw a lot in only a couple days. One thing was obvious, San Francisco is a big international tourist destination (we heard a lot of foreign languages wherever we went, including a lot of French), not sure why but it surprised me a little.
Anyway, all photos are on the gallery, in case you’re bored.
