SF
MAY '22
“YAY AREA.”
San Francisco was a time to get away, connect with one another, and share in our grief. As I sat in on a panel where therapists and counselors discussed healthy ways of grieving, one way that stuck out to me was to make new memories and experience new things. Being that I enjoy traveling, I decided that my mother, my sister, and I would be making a road trip up to San Francisco for the weekend. We made the trip about a month after my father’s passing as we began to live out this “new normal.”
Although we had lost a piece of our heart, I was grateful to be spending precious time with the ladies in my life. I am eternally grateful that rather than letting this tear apart our family, we allowed it to bring us closer to one another just like my dad would have wished.
Essentials
Of course I couldn’t make the trip without my camera in hand! Actually now that I think of it, let me go edit those photos!
Ok, one thing about me, I absolutely love exploring transportation systems in new cities. We ended up taking the bus and the classic SF trolley! Now the hills is what got me. As per usual, we walked for a majority of our time there. My sister now being a New Yorker, had a much easier time than I did. Boy, did those hills wear me out. I loved it!
During our time there we visited a few famous landmarks, (including locations where Princess Diaries was shot) art museums, and places with phenomenal views of the city. Not pictured is all the good eats and boba San Francisco had to offer.
