Wednesday, 21 June
Today was my first day back in San Francisco after camping in the Redwood Forest and visiting the wine country of Napa Valley. I have to admit that it definitely feels good to be back in the city again. And what a city- a city that was able to rebuild itself after
the earthquake that occurred in 1906. There are so many beautiful old buildings ——many sitting on top of big hills,offering great views of the city, the ocean, and the Golden Gate Bridge.
While-reading
My hotel is near downtown, in the Mission District, one of the oldest parts of the city. Many of the people living here are from Mexico or Central
America. This district used to be a poor area of town, but is
now centre for art music, and food. In fact, an art movement
called the "Mission School" started here. It's influenced by
graffiti art and comic art. I waked around looking at the street
art for a few hours. It was quite modern and lively. Afterwards,
I ate some delicious Mexican-Chinese noodles from a food truck. A real mix of cultures here!
While-reading
In the afternoon, I headed to a local museum that showed the historical
changes in California. I learnt that America got California from Mexico
in 1848. In the same year, gold was discovered near San Francisco, which
started a gold rush. Over 300,000 people came from all over the world to
seek their fortune, and San Francisco quickly became a big city. Many
Chinese arrived during this period. To earn a living, some open up
shops and restaurants in Chinatown.
While-reading
Many others found jobs on farms, joined the god rush, or went to build the railway that joined California to the eastern region of the country. The museum did a really good job of showing how America was built by immigrants from different countries and cultures.When these immigrants left their courtiers, they carried a bit of home in their hearts, but a new home here.
This evening, I went to Chinatown. There were so many good cafés and restaurants to
choose from.I selected a Cantonese restaurant that served its food on beautiful china
plates. What great food!That's enough for today. Tomorrow evening, I'm going to a
jazz bar in the Richmond District. Can't wait！
