We slowed into the day catching up and a fresh omelette from the chickens in the garden. We started planning our day with multiple suggestions from Kevin and Ryo (Sanaa’s housemates). We took a Walk to the BART station (which was much closer to her house than the one I used) and took it into the city. We walked around the main downtown area with all the big brand name shops lining the streets before heading towards China Town. In China Town we enjoyed all the interesting stores before decided to find some dim sum for lunch.

After lunch (which was delicious) we kept walking towards north beach and through the piers enjoying the sea lions and hubbub. We kept walking along Embarcadero before catching the BART again to go to meet Kevin and his girlfriend for a dinner party. Kevin is a vegan chef and one of his friends is a mixologist so the drinks flowed and the food was amazing! Ryo (a sushi chef) then started off with some vegan sushi making lessons. The guava whisky sours and many other drinks kept flowing before we had to leave to catch the last BART back to Sanaa’s house.
