The Bay Areahhhh
Ahhhh...it's so nice to be home. Since I've moved away, the only time I come home is for quick weekend trips where we are reliant on friends and family to take us here and there and we usually have a pretty tight schedule. So now I'm home and I'm free to roam around the Bay Area all by myself (only because my husband is away on business)!
One thing that I did this past weekend was take a trip to the city. I didn't do anything super special...just roamed around like I used to on a Sunday.
I used to live in San Francisco for many years, I was born there and I have to say that my heart is still there. I love the city. Yes, I know the fog rolls in and it's really hard to park and the one-ways are annoying, but after all of that...
I miss MUNI (I know, weird).
I miss driving down 19th Ave and smiling as I say the alphabetical names the whole way.
I miss the best chow mein from Eliza's. Oh, and those peanut butter crispy things.
I miss walking the dogs at Alta Plaza park - the wedding cake park.
I miss Seniore's Pizza (and I'm sure they miss me).
I (really) miss the subs from West Portal and Union Street (no, I've never known the name for these sandwich shops...this is just what I call them).
I haven't decided yet if I miss the Presidio...only because I always got lost. But I do love it...
There are so, so many that I can mention. I'm just happy to be home.
Don't worry, I'll post about my love affairs with other cities as we go along...
