Pizza in San Francisco off of Lombard Street
If you are ever in the Cow Hollow area of San Francisco and want some good, Chicago-style pizza, check out Patxi’s. I have yet to find really good pizza in Korea. My last one was so bad (the cheese and some other ingredients weren’t even real) that I will not be trying to find good pizza in in South Korea again.

Yosemite’s Vernal Falls
Yosemite National Park‘s Vernal Falls are a little out of the way compared to Upper and Lower Yosemite Falls, but the hike is beautiful and totally worth it.

Bay Bridge Series 2013
I have only been to one MLB game this year, a Giants-A’s game back in May (pictured above). I have been to several professional baseball games in Asia though. This weekend I plan to see a different Giants team; the Lotte Giants (of Busan, South Korea) will be taking on the SK Wyverns. It will be my first time in Sajik Baseball Stadium which is supposedly the best baseball stadium in Korea.
