Off to San Francisco

The next stop was in San Francisco and it was a blast. I loved bunjee jumping off the golden gate bridge. It was creppy at first because I thought that i was going to hit the water but my head stopped about 5 feet awaw from the water. I loved to go on runs while the weather was nice during the week I was there. I even felt an earthquake. It was a very small one but it was something. We don't have anything like that in Des Moines.

There were a lot of things to learn while I was there like that San Francisco is the 14th largest city in the United States of America in terms of population. In 1906 San Francisco had an massive earthquake that caused a large fire that wiped out a lot of the buildings and neighborhoods. The cable cars form the only national historic landmark. There are over 200 coffee shops within San Francisco and I actually got to 17 different ones. I had a lot more to go if I wanted to go to all of them.
