San Francisco IV

Haight Ashbury
We explored Haight Ashbury one afternoon. The architecture was beautiful and there were lots of retro neon signs which I loved. There were plenty of second hand clothing stores full of really cool stuff. It was so tempting. I had to force myself not to spend too much money.

I did buy some cds at Amoeba Records on Haight - The Pippetes, Albert Hammond Jnrs new album and some Flight of the Conchords. We had some tasty crepes in a little place on the Haight then took the bus back towards the hotel.



We had a drink at the Bambuddha lounge which was part of our hotel. The staff were really friendly and so helpful.

There was a great Vietnamese restaurant called Mongosteen just over the road from the Phoenix which we ate in 2 nights in a row. The food was amazing and the location pretty convenient. It also meant we didn't have to venture far out after dark down 'crazy' street.
