Reflection

I really enjoyed my trip to San Francisco. We were there for 4 days and 3 nights. I went with my Mom, my Dad, and my sister. We had a lot of fun there together.

 

My favorite part of the trip was the San Francisco Giants game against the San Diego Padres. The Giants are a baseball team that play at AT&T Park. My favorite sport is baseball, so I really enjoyed the game. The Giants were trying to defend their world series title. I was hoping they would win because they are my third favorite team behind the Toronto Blue Jays, and my favorite team,  the New York Mets.

 

There were a lot of Padres fans at the game. San Diego, where the Padres play, is not that far from San Francisco so the Giants didn’t have a lot of home field advantage.

 

During the game I helped my sister try to understand the rules of baseball. I told her what happened and what everything meant. We all had a lot of fun at the game, even though the Giants lost.

 

I also really liked the food in the city. They had a lot of good seafood and food from other countries. We went to a restaurant called the Slanted Door that had the best Vietnamese food I had ever had. Ghirardelli Square, which is the original Ghirardelli factory, had a lot of Ghirardelli chocolate, which is extremely good. I really liked that there was so many different types of food. We also went to an Asian restaurant and a good burger place. I don’t normally eat Vietnamese food, or Asian food so it was a nice change.

 

The Trolley was a train that went in the middle of the street. It runs on wires that go above the roads. It was really cool! We got on it at our hotel and took it up a steep hill near Union Square. My Mom said it was in an old famous movie. I was excited because the trolleys are very old and they are an outdoor subway, but with no windows or doors. I wanted to hang on the edge of the trolley but we didn’t get a chance. We took it to Lombard Street. That’s how we found out that it was really crooked. I learned it was the most crooked street in the world. I thought that was an interesting fact.

 

Overall, I thought San Francisco was awesome!  Everything there was interesting and it was all a lot of fun. I liked it there a lot and would definitely go there again.

    Freddie, this looks really thoughtful! I’m curious with your writing goals, if this was a struggle for you to write. Good job!
