We are in Grandview Terrace, 20 minutes drive to Golden gate..So glad there is a baby/kids park just 10 minutes walk away our place but its taking me 20 minutes going back home pushing my daughter's stroller coz its uphill..LOL!!!Yes, so many buses and I am starting to learn all the routes so if I have to go somewhere i don't always have to wait for my Love to drive us...

Glad you are with your hubby. We're never apart. S.F. is an interesting city. Wow, expensive real estate.

Your husband looks happy!

There you say it...Really expensive real estate...Hubby always tells me that we are his greatest blessings and HIS LIFE WILL CHANGE FOR GOOD NOW!!!I can't believe how he tells each and everyone even strangers that he love his NEW LIFE and HE WILL GIVE HIS WHOLE LIFE TAKING GOOD CARE OF US...The good thing about the 2 of us is that we value family so much!!

ah...you're around upper castro. malapit sa duboce area right? they got nice houses there. yeah...that area has a lot of uphill, pero after a while, masasanay ka rin. madali lang matandaan ang mga routes. if you're in doubt, you can always ask the bus driver to help you out. sabihin mo lang where you're trying to get to...tapos sasabihan ka nila where to get off and (if needed) which line to transfer to. ask hubby na dalin ka across golden gate bridge to the marin headlands. you can see the whole SF from the headlands. a real sight for sore eyes.

ah...i see from your post that you've experienced the pride parade that happens on weekends huh?...LOL. there's lots of things na mapupuntahan dyan. you can take a stroll on market street and see the shopping centre. or go to chinatown. fleet week is coming up in october. so that whole week, don't be surprised when you see and hear the blue angels flying over head throughout the day practicing for their show. and then on the day of the blue angels show, you head on over to crissy field or baker's beach (also known as the nude beach...but depende sa side you go to) to watch them do their stunts. if you get lucky, maybe they'll fly under the bridge. and the best part?....it's all free!!!

yeah...SF isn't really the cheapest place to live in. but it sure as hell one of the funnest city to live in. btw...kung magpa-plano kayo ng trip to a theme park like discovery kingdom sa vallejo or great america sa santa clara...let me know. kse nakakakuha ako ng discounted ticket price through my union membership. or ask your hubby kung he gets discounts on things through his company. i know what you mean about pinching every penny. in today's economy...you have to do that. and oh yeah...kung hindi ka pa nadadala ng hubby mo and nami-miss mo filipino food...daly city has a lot of pinoy restaurants. ling nam, pinoy toppings, ma mon luk, etc. etc. etc. off of gellert blvd near serramonte. and there a lot more sa may south city.
