I was invited to take a road trip to San Francisco to see the Giants Baseball game with some friends on Sunday. It was a 4 hour drive - but worth it! Once we arrived I was elated to see the big city and urban life of San Fran. Blue sky and bright sunshine made the day a perfect day out. The Giants stadium sits right on the marina next to the ocean which made for photogenic snaps.
I made the mistake of liking the rival t shirt and logo better than the Giants merchandise. I wanted to buy the t shirt above but it was over priced. After all, I was with Giants fans in the hometown of the team. Behind my back the girls bought me the Chicago Cubs shirt I had my eye on. The condition was that I had to wear it then and there amongst the thousands of Giants fans. I was lucky I didn't get much shit from other fans, only odd looks.
I went the baseball game with two couples from Mt Shasta, both of whom are approaching being together for two years. One couple is still loved up and all over each other as if they just met. The other couple bickered and a distant tension was felt throughout the afternoon. It was interesting being the single person amongst the two couples experiencing opposite emotions. It reminded me of the hard work it can take to be in a relationship whilst how fantastic it can be to be in love and physically inseparable.
