San Francisco..
Am I going the right way?

[Transamerica Pyramid, Columbus Tower]

[ Transamerica Pyramid, Columbus Tower ]

I found that out when I got back to Hong Kong. At that time all I knew was that I was at Kearny and Colombus, hopefully heading in the right direction for Union Square where I was to meet a friend. Oh well.. we haven't seen each other for almost twenty years, what's twenty minutes? I mean, how loud can one scream in Macy's? ^_^;;

[ Jackson ]

Ok.. I was well and truly lost by now. So what if the sign says "Jackson"? Where is Tourist Info when you need it?? Where are the police when you need them?! Shouldn't they be ticketing those double-parked cars? ;)

Bit of a diversion here: A rare sighting of a Mercedes Benz (seen everywhere in Hong Kong). The number plate says, "ABC" *gwa-ha-ha!*

I really liked this neighbourhood. Lovely brick buildings, light pastel facades, boutiques, interesting shops and cafes, and... *UUUUUH!!!* a great big sign, "ADULT VIDEO". Oh well. There goes the neighbourhood I guess..

[Dunno Where]

[ Dunno Where ]

I see a lot of banks. I must be near the business district. Hm, not good. I want to be near the shopping district.. but wait.. there are tables out in the center of that street! Gosh, I wished I had time to stop by there awhile...

I still don't know if I'm going the right way. Cute little red box, looks like a birdhouse. I love the way the street and buildings seem to go up to the sky... I can almost believe that the streets are supposed to be paved with gold, oops! *tr_ip*

(It's not too clear guys, but that is a very good looking woman in front.) Woooo! Nice posh place! Oh wait!! Is that a BURGER KING???

AAAAHHHHH!!! MACY"S!!!!
No, I don't know which street I'm walking down. (Map? Isn't that a kind of fish?) Hey, I see Macy's and I have five minutes to spare before I'm suppose to meet Karen, woo hoo! :)

[Union Square]

One for the poseur in me. *grin*
