I get a lot of questions about how our trips are planned out and how we fit so many activities in on one day, so I thought I'd put a little spin on the "day in the life" type of post! This is the exact itinerary from our first full day in San Fransisco!
Day 1 // San Francisco, CA
8 AM // Wake up, get ready
9 AM // Grab a coffee at Peet's Coffee
9:30 AM // Explore The Presidio
10:30 AM // Walk the Golden Gate Bridge
11:30 AM // Go pick up friends in Daly City
1 PM // Grab Dim Sum for lunch in Chinatown
2 PM // Explore Chinatown
4 PM // Shopping in Union Square
6 PM // Dinner at Foreign Cinema
8 PM // Change clothes
8:30 PM // Dessert at Mission Pie
9 PM // Drinks at Bourbon & Branch
11 PM // Drinks & games at a friend's place in Daly City
So there you have it. That was our whole first day in SF! Each of those times account for travel times, as well. That's why you see a significant amount of time between picking up our friends and grabbing lunch and again between dinner and changing clothes for going out. Also, if you were to map out this day, each segment of the day is fairly close together. All the morning activities were located together, afternoon activities were all within walking distance of each other, and post dinner activities required some driving, but they were only miles apart. If you like jam packed days like Caleb and I do, I highly suggest setting up your day like this. To find more tips on how we plan out our trips take a look at my Trip Planning Tips post from awhile back!
