New plans

So I could type a post all about isolation but I figure nobody really cares and it’s not sometime I particularly want to memorialise. I think it’s pretty much the same as at home anyway except it’s more expensive and without the creature comforts. It was plenty of Uber Eats and TV along with some reading. I do find it ironic though, that my housemate ended up with COVID the same time as me despite the fact we’re on different sides of the world.

With my original plans thrown into disarray I needed to figure out how I was going to finish off my trip. I had already booked two nights in Venice Beach, LA as that was going to be then of my trip. I thought oh well. I guess I’ll just book another night, I can send a day or two on the beach and maybe actually get those OC photos I was chasing. But the more I thought about it, the more this didn’t seem like a great option. I’ve been to Venice Beach before, and OC photos are cool but highly unlikely to be the highlight of my trip.

I’ve always wanted to see San Francisco. Although I don’t have a lot of time I figured if I fly out on Thursday (early) I can get half of Thursday plus Friday and Saturday in SF. I’ve then got all day Sunday to get to LAX before I fly out at 11pm. This option made my much happier so I went with it. All my time isn’t locked down, but I’m flying across tomorrow, accomodation is booked, same place as I was staying at. All said and done flying from SFO to LAX seemed the quickest and not far off the cheapest option so I’m flying Delta down to LA late afternoon which will get me to LAX at a fairly decent time for flying back home. This gives me 2 full days and 2 more than half days in San Francisco. I’m still doing the Wine Tour on Saturday. I’ll probably do the Alcatraz Tour and check out Fisherman’s Wharf Thursday arvo. I’m still deciding if I want to do the Tech Tour of Friday or not. But I’ll figure it out and if not before hopefully do some blog posts and photos on the flight home.

Having actually done some touristy things now, look out for those in the next couple of blog posts. I’ll finish with a couple of photos of my Boston AirBnB bedroom like I said I would in a previous post. (sorry the focus is slightly out).
