Kim came out to visit in the beginning of Dec., so I took a day off work and we went into the City. Kim's trip was a birthday present to both Kim and I and he so thoughtfully booked us a hotel room near Chinatown. The hotel was really neat. It was a boutique hotel that had and art theme. Every room was painted in the style of different artists or genres. Ours was pretty cool. It had a giant peacock on one wall. It was really cool, even if I did have a lot of difficulty opening the front door... We took the Caltrain to San Francisco so Kim and I just got to sit back and relax. It was nice and a great opportunity for us to just catch up. I have really missed her, so our little mini vacation was just what I needed. We spent most of the day shopping. I think in total Kim and I went to 3 different H&Ms. It would have been 4 except the stores don't open until 11 on Sunday in the city. We also did our fair share of site seeing. We had a really yummy lunch in Chinatown at the Hong Kong Clay Pot and happened to stumble upon the quaintest little fake purse shop. We walked by the store and a tiny naked lady statue caught my eye. I grabbed Kim to show her and laugh about it and low and behold we found the glorious purses. Kim bought herself one as a souvenir and I actually went back the follow week to buy our friend one for Christmas. Then we went on a Golden Gate tour and drove over the Golden Gate Bridge. The tour started at the Palace of Fine Arts which was built for the World's Fair and it was absolutely gorgeous. It would be the perfect place for a picnic and a biker wedding photo shoot. While we were there there was a massive wedding party taking pictures. There had to have been like 15 groomsmen and they all had a Harleys. All the Bridesmaids were wearing kimonos and there was even a tiny motorcycle for the ring bearer. It was quite the spectacle. I would post pictures, but Kim has them all. Then the tour took us over the bridge to Sausalito. It was a really cute town and Kim and I had a great time. That night we shopped some more and then walked to Little Italy for dinner which was quite a trek, especially since I took Kim up the steepest hill possible. The dinner was only so so but it didn't matter Kim and I had fun. Overall it was a great trip and I can't wait for her to come back again! Happy Kim!!! Post the pictures please!
