San Fransisco Tour

During the winter break of 2013, two days before the New Year's, the Shin Family decided to take a trip to San Fransisco to take a look at the amazing scenery and fresh air. We had originally wanted to go on a ski trip but California did not have a lot of snow and rumor said that the snow that was available was either man made or poor quality, so we decided not to go. 

Our first stop was Twin Peaks. This is the place that people go to see San Fransisco in one view from the top of a hill.This place was beautiful and really surprised us because the buildings looked even more beautiful from far away. 




Our next stop was a hill on which we could see the Golden Gate Bridge from a distance. Despite it's original vastness, it looked rather small from a faraway cliff. 


On the opposite side of the Golden Gate Bridge on the cliff, there was also this beautiful scenery. 


Here is the Golden Gate Bridge!

Here is a silly photo of Jessica and Mom in front of the G.G.B.

We next stopped by the California Palace of the Legion of Honor. This is a Fine Arts Museum that contains many art works such as St. John the Baptist. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to actually enter the museum, but admired the beautiful exterior design of the museum. 

The outside was decorated with this kind of beautiful layout.


Here was an imitation of "The Thinker"!


We dropped by area called Point Lobos which had a beach and a very famous restaurant called the Cliff House, which we also, sadly, did not drop by. 



This was probably the funniest part of our trip to San Fransisco! From a different trail, we found a man taking a jump shot and Jessica decided to capture it from a different angle, and it turned out pretty cool.
