    That's the best part about the Grand Canyon. You see, I thought it would be sheer cliffs and railings, but where we were it was like one big potentially deadly jungle gym.

    According to that link, that park is located in Colorado.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I lived in California the majority of my life and have still never been to San Francisco. I've never been rich enough to pay the Golden Gate Bridge toll to get in.

    I love LA though. It's like a real life version of Fallout 3.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    ETA: That's actually a pretty good list so far. I somehow doubt you could stick to it though.
    Tip: I am much less likely to humiliate you without witnesses, so the less people the better for you.

    The Ripley's Believe it or Not! Museum is on Fisherman's Wharf, I believe. I spent a day there, I don't really have much to go on.

    Off topic, but the Gustaf Nordenskiöld mentioned in that article is my grandmother's grandfather.

    That's my point. They're, what, maybe 300 years old? Meanwhile, I'm walking through the most epic parts of Tokyo, randomly past buildings that are at least 400 years old. Hanging out at temples that are 800 years old. In Tokyo you can piss in a toilet older than the oldest buildings in America.
    Well yeah, I've been in pubs that are older than your country. Also, not counting the fact that there's some Pueblo buildings three millennia old, the oldest colonial buildings in NM are four hundred years old, not three hundred. Generally speaking older cities only means ty urban planning

    I've never been to San Francisco, but this movie taught me everything I need to know.

    San Francisco is a really cool city. I definitely like it there. I wish I were the one going - I'd love to go back.

    But anyway, Haight Ashbury, Castro and The Mission are all very much worth checking out. As for things like the Fisherman's Wharf... meh. Not really that interesting. At all.
    San Francisco is great for just randomly walking around and exploring. The Mission and around e.g. has a hell of a lot of cool and pretty murials.

    As for accommodation the only place I know is a hostel in The Mission because that's where I stayed. I don't even remember the name, but it was cheap.

    Oh, and be sure to go to Zeitgeist. It's a really great bar not far from The Mission.

    I got it. In San Fran, you should go to the Tenderloin 8D
