SF Trip Part 1

Thurs Sept 29:
Left very early in the morning to fly from YOW to YYZ to SFO. Customs line wasn't too bad in Toronto.
Watched "Green Lantern" on the flight to SFO. I liked the movie. Ending was so-so. Slept the rest of the time.

Will picked me up at the SF airport and we went for dim sum. It's an all day Dim Sum place near his new house in Daly City. The shrimp rice noodle rolls was one of the best I've ever had.

We did some pre-wedding stuff and then met up with Thi, Jane, and Ben in SF Japan Town for dinner. Japan Town was really cool. There is a big pagoda in the Japan Town courtyard.

We got there after 7pm, so all the stores were closed :(
All the restaurants had plastic food on display. Ben and I agree that the restaurant area even smelled like the restaurant area in Aqua City in Odaiba, Tokyo :) Lots of different Japanese Restaurants to choose from, including Kaiten Sushi.

I wished I had more time to check out Japan Town.

We had Japanese Food for dinner. We went to a restaurant called "Izumiya".
I got the katsudon with cold soba and some Ikura Sushi (Salmon Roe). Can't get ikura in Ottawa. It's so good.
