West Coast Adventures!

My trip to the west coast was wonderful! I went with my friend Rebecca to check out Stanford for grad school (for her, not me), and we had a great time!

We wandered around Stanford. Something that can take a good bit of time, seeing as it's the second largest campus in the world. It is simply beautiful! I would go to school there just so I could walk around campus everyday.

We also got to spend some time in San Francisco, which was a lot of fun. We tried to squeeze in as many tourist-y things as we could: Lombard St., both bridges (The Golden Gate and Bay Bridge), Alcatraz, fisherman's wharf, pier 39, Ghirardelli Square, Union Square, Cable cars...it was a busy trip.

We were also very proud of ourselves for managing the whole trip without a car. Shout out to the Caltrain!

Although I'll be super sad when Rebecca heads out to Palo Alto in the fall, I'm really looking forward to visiting her and that beautiful bay again.

Here are some pictures I took of the sights.







Hope you're having a lovely day!

Happy Monday!!


Sigh...I was not brave enough to try the rhubarb cupcakes this week, I opted for a safer, lemon cupcake, (because it was easier, and I thought it might go over better with our company). But never fear, I will make the rhubarb cupcakes!

Not this week though, because this week I'm going to California!
Today is officially my first day of spring break, I celebrated by sleeping until ten (which is ridiculously late for me).
I don't leave for California until Wednesday, so I have some time to relax and get all of my affairs in order.

more later,
Katie
