San Diego (16/Jan ~ 17/Jan)

At the Sea World .. It was so hot even though the date was 16/Jan... Since San Diego was my last trip place, I was kind of being worry that I would be colder after I went back to Minnesota. But I was missing the cold air in Minnesota a little bit in the hot day.

Grand Canyon (15/Jan)

Las Vegas (12/Jan ~ 15/Jan)

The color of Las Vegas

Los Angeles (6/Jan ~ 11/Jan)

Well... Actually I didn't like LA that much compared to other cities like SF or Las vegas. I wanna recommend to go LA if you would like to go around the street and enjoy amuzement park.
I went to the universal studios and Disney land continuously in two days but in my opinion to go to the Universal studio was better than Disneyland.
I don't know maybe someone who likes to enjoy attraction much will be better to go Disney. But I think any person, all of family members could enjoy Universal studion. It was not thrilled but it was always beyond my expectation.

El Pueblo de LA Historic Monument
- In 1781, Mexican people started to settle in this place and there are still Mexican restaurants and stores along with Olvera St. There is the oldest house in LA named Avila Adobe in the middle of the street.

LA is more urbane than SF.

Walk of Fame in Hollywood

I love Matt Mamon!

Spider man & Batman couple..

Don't take a picture with them if you don't wanna give them some money..

Santa Monica Beach -

I like empty sea..

But, this kind of guest is welcomed..

San Francisco (2/Jan ~ 5/Jan)

I really wanted to go to see the sea in the winter when I was in Korea, but I could make it in San Francisco. The weather was cool and it was kind of quiet.

There has been the first Ghirardeli chocolate shop in San Francisco since 1852.

It was the happiest moment for me who was staying Minnesota where is not easy to find seafood.

It is Lombard St. which is America's crookest street.

This is the famous 'Golden Gate Bridge'. It was confusing to tell Golden Gate Bridge with Bay Bridge at the first time but then I could tell them by color. The color of Golden Gate Bridge is red and Bay Bridge looks thinner and longer than Golden Gate Bridge.
The Golden Gate Bridge was the longest suspension bridge span in the world when it was completed in 1937, and has become an internationally recognized symbol of San Francisco and California.

The only reason I took a picture of these flowers was I couldn't see flowers in Minnesota. I was so happy to see flowers after a long while..

Sanfrancisco (2/Jan ~ 5/Jan)

San Francisco... I didn't expect that much for SF and I might not go there unless there was a friend of mine who was working as an intern. But, SF became the city I really want to recommend to travel. It was such a beautiful city... steep hills, piers and seafoods~!!
The public transportation system in SF was not only so convenient to use for travelers but also well-suitated to approach to famous sightseeing places.

This is famous cable car of SF. It was so much fun taking the cable car and going up and down the hills. It seemed like I was taking an attraction at amuzement park. I wanna commend to take it though it is a kind of expensive.

Here is Farmer's market at Ferry buiding. I really liked this place since I could eat fresh foods which were just made as per ordering and I also could watch people walking around there.

I could go to Sausalito which is famous for luxury housing area since there were ferry station at Ferry building to Sausalito. It was such a beautiful island. Not to mention to unique buildings I also could enjoy aristic works in the small galleries.

It is the picture I'd taken at the Ferry to go back to SF from Sausalito. As I heard SF is often said treasure island because it looks like the treasure island with tons of lights at night. I could guess why SF is called like that when I saw SF far from it.
