Not quite as many stamps as it took to send mail from Botswana, but still pretty cool. Inside each card was a designated "Snack Stop", the address, phone number, and hours of the snack stop, a suggested treat, and directions how to get there from Meg's. Armed with all this information, I spent the day before I flew out on a delicious scavenger hunt.
Snack Stop #1: That Takes the Cake, Hella Nutella Cake
After a very far walk up and over a number of ridiculous San Francisco hills, I arrived at my destination...
...only to find it closed. Luckily, I found what I thought was a suitable alternative just a few stores down.
YUM!!
Snack Stop #2: Kara's Cupcakes, Ghiradelli Square, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcake
Short walk to Ghiradelli Square, where I managed to avoid distractions
and find Kara's Cupcakes, which was open! Delicious cupcake and you can see from this photo that my snack scavenger hunt is already helping my double chin.
Snack Stop #3: Swirl Culture, Tart Frozen Yogurt with Oreos
Pretty full at this point, but in the true spirit of America, I ignore that full feeling and keep eating. The tart yogurt is surprisingly good, considering I don't like yogurt, and I decide to get strawberries on top instead.
Snack Stop #4: Miette, Ferry Building Marketplace, Snack of my choice
I met TK and Mgalla at Ferry Building Marketplace for lunch and finished my scavenger hunt with a stop at Miette. I opted for some peanut butter cookies to take on the plane.
Out of time, but still one snack stop at Citizen Cake left! Guess I'll just have to stop there on my way back home.
Catching Up - Thailand post coming soon.
