So I went into the City yet again, except this time I went with my Dad. So my list is going to be a little different today. i'm actually going to list all the things that I've done but haven't actually mentioned yet.. because it appears I'm a tad bit behind.
Things I've Done:
#9- Write a Blog All Summer Long: I'm going to finally count this as checked off my list because I have updated this blog far more than I have any other blog in my life... in fact I believe that this is actually post #31!
#20- Go on a Hike: To be honest at this point in the summer I've actually been on quite a few hikes but I've been neglecting to take pictures of them because well, I suck.
#24- Take a Day Trip: So my mom and I actually headed over to Calistoga a little less than a week ago.. it's a very charming town but a little scary when the road name changes and you have no cell service to make sure you aren't lost (we actually weren't, thankfully).
#66- See Coit Tower: I saw it, but there were a lot of people and it was really windy so I didn't really take any pictures.
#71- Take a Bus into San Francisco: So this actually served a great purpose as I was actually practicing the route I'll be taking to commute to college this fall.
#127- Prepare for College: I now know my route, have all the electronics I need, have my book list, and have met the SFSUPD.. I'm feeling pretty darn prepared now.
#137- Have Starbucks Spell My Name Correctly Without Me Telling Them How: This is really pretty self explanatory..
#138- Take Justin to the Disney Store: Mom and I took Nemo to the store and I posed him with all of the character from Monsters University that are in the Oozma Kappa Fraternity.. the pictures were adorable!
#145- Walk Along the Train Tracks: So I actually did this with my mom at the very beginning of the summer but I never actually crossed it off.. silly me!
#155- Try New Food: I actually tried Vietnamese food a couple of days ago and it was pretty tasty!
#156- Go to the Walt Disney Family Museum: I had an absolute blast here.. I've never enjoyed a museum more than I enjoyed this one. You should definitely check it out for yourself!
#161- Eat Tiramisu: Had this as the cake at my grandma's birthday this past Sunday.. yum!
#164- Get a Macbook: I finally got my new Macbook Pro for college, yesterday... ahhh I love it so much!
#171- Go to Stow Lake: I used to go here with my dad all the time as a kid.. it was great to be able to revisit it.
#172- Go to San Francisco's Financial District: It was great to check out the financial district... especially since I'm going to be a business major at SFSU!
#187- Go to an Italian Place: Grabbed lunch at a small place called Little Henry's with my dad today; linguini with baby clams- mmm, mmm, good.
#190- See a Waterfall: I actually saw 2 waterfalls today and they were absolutely fantastic!

City Days, the Trilogy
So I went into San Francisco once more today.. I know, I know, I've gone like 3 times in 3 days but hey- I gotta get my list items done, don't I?
So here's what I did today:
#8-Send a Message in a Bottle: So I finally managed to do this! Granted my message was written on a napkin and my bottle was a plastic water bottle, but I'm still going to count it!
#21-Visit an Aquarium: So today I went to the Aquarium by the Bay, there were fish, and fish, and more fish.. and otters too!
#35- Make a Rootbeer Float: This one is pretty self explanatory.. Rootbeer and Vanilla ice cream, super basic stuff right there.
#45- Ride the Ferry: Finally rode the ferry for the first time ever! From Larkspur into the city, that way my friend Tiny and I didn't have to pay for parking in the city.. which is always a nightmare!
#63- Take Pictures in a Photobooth: This is another thing that Tiny and I did at the Wharf, which I decided to revisit while I was in the city just because there's so many list items that I can get done there.
#117- Make Chocolate Covered Strawberries: So Tiny decided to sleepover and we raided Safeway for a carton of strawberries and Dulce (which is basically microwaveable chocolate). The strawberries are delicious, by the way!
#134- Ride a Cable Car: The Cable Car was an absolute nightmare to wait for... but nonetheless it was a ton of fun to ride and a truly great experience to have.
#174- Go to the Rainforest Cafe: Coincidentally, the Rainforest Cafe is also located very near to Wharf so Tiny and I were able to have lunch there as soon as we managed to get off of the Ferry and walk all the way down the Embarcadero (which is definitely more tiring when you've already done it two days before).
#179- Use a Fake Name at Starbucks: I told them that my name was Stella, even though it is most definitely Caitlin(; hehe.. so sneaky of me!
