San Francisco


Last weekend Rob, Courtney, Brandon and I were able to go to our long awaited trip to San Francisco to see the play Wicked. I've been wanting to see this play ever since I heard about it. I was fortunate to find out one of Jason's friends is in the cast and she was able to get us awesome seats. So....the trip started with us taking BART into the city. That in itself was an adventure. There was a homeless guy in the train with us. He would randomly yell out "I thought we were going to Mexico!" He did it so regularly that I would look over at Brandon and he didn't even have a surprised look on his face. At the end of the train ride we were all standing up and this other guy came walking down the isle and as he was passing by Rob he yells out "Happy Saturday Everybody!". As we got off of BART, and are now officially in the busy City, we needed to find where the theatre was located. We were running short on time. There happened to be a huge rally just down the street having to do with the middle east, naturally we walked towards the rally. We walked about a block from the BART station and were now getting a bit desparate. I gently nudged Rob to ask one of the cops for directions. He then points to the building that we had just walked away from and we see this huge poster on the wall. We then go running back to where we were with some kids asking their dad why everyone is running. We were so glad to make it to our seats. The show was definitely worth it.
