The City by the Bay

Justin, Sean, and I visited San Francisco (please don't refer to it as San Fran unless you want people to know you're a tourist) this past weekend. I had half of Friday and all of Monday off of work for Labor Day and this was Sean's last weekend of freedom before his senior year begins, so we took advantage of the timing! Justin and Sean drove up the coast Thursday night and picked me up at the airport Friday afternoon. We checked into our hotel and went right to the Charger game. It was the last preseason game: Chargers v. 49ers. We played a little corn hole or bags (depending on where you were born) and then headed into the stadium. It was freezing, but it was fun to see another stadium. I might have to make a tour one of these days. Unfortunately, we left in the fourth quarter right before the Chargers returned a fumbled punt for a touchdown. At least it was only preseason :) We drove back to the apartment downtown, changed, and were off to meet Justin's friend Nasty (aka Nate) and his buddies at a little bar called John Collins. SO cute! If I wasn't so tired and grumpy it would have been great. We still managed to have some fun. Nate's friends and brother are super friendly, of course. Sean and I hit our wall around midnight so we parted ways from the rest of the group and headed back to the hotel. Justin and his friends stayed out to go clubbing, but eventually made it back to the room. Thank God! We would have liked to sleep in a bit later than we did, but we had to get up to check out. And to see San Francisco!

More to come tomorrow, along with my pictures. I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
