Sunny Sunday

I know I am jumping from Saturday afternoon to Sunday morning, but the rest of Saturday wasn't too much of a story! I was tired and full after the Farmers' Market, lunch, and Ghirardelli, so I ended up going back to the hotel, took a nap, had a light dinner, and went to bed early. I wanted to be fresh for the next day!

Sunday started out with a trip to the Mission District. I had gotten lots of suggestions to check it out, so I headed that direction after breakfast. There wasn't a ton of stuff going on, but I wanted to see some of the murals there. I am glad I went...

All the city guides said that Precita Eyes was a good place to get information

about the Mission District, so that was my first stop...

Dang- got there before it opened! Oh well...it was still cool to find it ;) 

This was the first mural that really caught my eye

I liked the angel in this one

COOL! Max from "Where The Wild Things Are"

A little creepy, but deep...

...and a pretty one :)

My next Sunday stop was the Little Italy area near Washington Square. One of the first things I noticed after getting off the bus there was this cute little hat shop:

Loved the vintage signs...

...and the black and white panama hat! But I decided not to splurge on it

since I had already had some fun at Sur La Table the day before ;)

The next thing I saw at Washington Square was this beautiful church

I had to stop and stare for a second! So pretty. After enjoying the scenery, I decided to check out Coit Tower before I started getting hungry for lunch... So up the hill I went...

The trek uphill was worth the views :)

Now I was hungry! So the next stop was Cafe Divine- and the name was fitting. Had a really nice Sunday brunch there before heading on to see Beach Blanket Babylon (a funny musical). My recommendation is to Google BBB to get the scoop; there is too much to type here!

A quick pic from our seats in the theater; photos weren't allowed during the performance. 
I am glad I took the time to see it! A must for San Francisco, and worth every penny.

The rest of Sunday seemed to fly by. I strolled back down through the Ferry Building and then headed back to home base to freshen up. Found a nearby place for dinner called Cafe Claude (where I tried pate' for the first time and coq au vin). Very good. San Francisco was getting wild just about the time I was finishing dinner... The Giants won the World Series! There were people cheering, fireworks popping, car horns beeping, and all sorts of crazy shenanigans. It was cool to be there, but the day had me tired, so I walked back to my room and crashed- pretty oblivious to the commotion :)
