Super Fag: Fly Boy Adventures!

So i thought I'd throw up one more post full of regular touristy activities before the big Pride weekend...

I think we start back on Tuesday! Justo and I headed into Haye's Valley. A neat collection of shops and restaurants, with a really arty sort of vibe. It was just a short walk away from where we're staying but then so are most things. We stopped in at the place called Frjtz, (which i'm really not sure how to pronounce) and ate these awesome open sandwiches. The place had cool mosaics of comic book type figures and was really affordable. Then we wandered down the road and looked in some nice clothes shops and Justin bought a pair of shoes, navy with lime green soles... nice. It was a pretty cruisey day but we both had plans for the evening...

Justin went down Davisidero to a place called the Independent to see 'Fat Freddys Drop.' And i've been told it was really good. I caught the Muni, underground train system, to Embarcadero, where the Ferry Building is to see a production of Peter Pan. It was really kool. The theatre was a big tent and the walls/ceiling behind the audience were used as backdrops with the use of a 360 degree projection. The first of it's kind used for theatre. There was also a lot of harness work so the 'kids' could fly. The most impressive thing was having Peter, Tinkerbell and the three kids all flying in the centre and the projections were CGI animated and moved across the tent which really made it look like they were flying, sort of, anyway it was really kool and a good adaptation of the play!

Wednesday was unplanned until the morning and was suppose to be something of a quiet day. I think it was for Justin who went to a gym and trained some. I made plans to see the Golden Gate Bridge by hiring a bicycle and riding across it. For some reason i ditched this plan and decided to walk. I headed towards Presidio which is a large park with loads of red woods and gum trees, a golf course and heaps of walking

tracks. This took a little while but was very pleasant, i eventually reached the Promenade, down by the water from where you could see the bridge, having looked around here i headed up to the bridge itself. The day was really foggy which meant that the tops of the bridge's two towers were masked by cloud which actually looked really kool. It was a long walk across and the wind was intense; also it's higher than it seems. I took loads of photos and was pleasantly surprised that it was sunny on the other side. I tried taking some photos of myself and was getting pretty good, but this nice family offered to take one for me as well. I headed back for the long walk home. On the way i did try a Butterfinger, ridiculous, it just tastes like butter, peanut butter and chocolate, but good!

Last night we headed out again and chatted with some locals. Having a chilled day today, might head out again later this evening though. Also i have a wicked craving for chicken wings, these shouldn't be hard to find right?

Respect,

Josh and Justin...
