San Francisco - First Day

I arrived at SF airport at 11:45 am, earlier than the scheduled time. Queue was pretty long at the immigration. I think it took me about 1.5 -2 hours to get out from the airport.

I decided to get a sim card from the airport. It costs me 69 USD plus tax for an 8 day lycamobile. It's good for 3G and 500 minutes local call. 

Then I proceeded to level 3 for shared van trip to my hotel. I reserved a super shuttle, which costs 16 usd pertrip. 

Arrived at Parc 55 hotel at union square around 2 plus. The checked in procedure went really well. I met a nice receptionist who offered me a big corner room after having a short conversation. Her friendliness reminded me about life and culture in the states. Their service is unquestionable, and I simply respect their straight forward culture. 

In the room, I saw a note saying that day-light saving will be over the next day, meaning that on sunday of Nov 3rd, we will have 25 hours. What a lucky day for me, after such a long flight, I have one more hour to rest. Haha...

After did some stretching exercise, I took a nice shower, then went to the conference venue to get my meeting pass @ Hilton hotel where is located just less than 5 minutes walk from Parc 55. Then, I walked around the SF downtown. 

I had a cup of godiva hot dark chocolate. The price is not cheap (USD5), but, it was really good.  

P.S. Please stay tune for my next post!
