We spent the rest of the day looking at the different suburbs of San Fran, Chinatown, Little Italy, Alamo etc, we also popped back into the Apple store (trip 3) to see the new Macbooks. I have to say that they are really nice, and I could really do with a laptop.. hint hint
Last night we headed to the port for our last dinner outing. On the way we decided to stop into our favorite little store (4th trip) to purchase a Nano for myself. it was time to upgrade from my brick of an iPod purchased around 4-5 years ago, so Tony got me one as a belated birthday present. It goes with my new Nike+ running shoes and kit we bought earlier in the trip. I am really looking forward to trying it all out. Can you all hear the inner geek speaking?
Today we are heading up to have a look in the Coit Tower before heading off to the airport early this afternoon. We have had an amazing trip and neither of us want it to end.
We met some Lady's on the trolley bus last night, who told us to "say nice things about us Americans" and to be honest, other than United Airlines staff (not all, just some), we really do only have nice things to say about Americans. Everyone has been really friendly, helpful and nice. The scenery has been amazing... more than I ever dreamed of, the food has been rather hit and miss to be fair, some has been awesome, others not so great (Twinkies are not nice by the way) the roading blew Tony's mind, and the public transport system has Tony stating that we should build a monorail in Wellington on a regular basis!
It has been really interesting hearing people talk about the election and the difference in feeling about it all over the country. I will blog a bit more about this and other American musings over the next few weeks when I get a moment to think some things through better.
See you next time America.
