A photo diary of my recent US trip

Outside the convention center where I attended my conference.

Sneaking to the most famous tourist attraction in San Antonio during my lunch break - The Alamo
My first destination at San Francisco - The City Hall. Its within walking distance from my Hostel.
Enjoying the sunset at Pier 39.
San Francisco Bay
The famous Fisherman's wharf.
Behind me is the Ferry Building.
Walking the streets of Chinatown.
My first time at Golden Gate Bridge.
On the bridge.
My day trip to Yosemite.
Bridalveil Falls
Half dome.

Lower Yosemite Falls. An old couple took this photo for me. They are such a nice couple. They saw me taking photo of myself and came over offering to help. Then they walked me to the falls, telling me that they would come to Yosemite every year just to enjoy the scenery. Watching them holding each other hands at such a ripe old age makes me feel so envious.
On the way to Alcatraz
Standing on Alcatraz Island
At the Japanese Tea Garden. A nice spot within the Golden Gate Park to chill. The garden is lovely with all the flowers and sakura. I went at the right time.
The Baker Beach. Great view of the Golden Gate Bridge from here. Its a nudist beach as well.
My second time at the Golden Gate Bridge just to catch the evening scenery.
