Custom Light Up Shoes and 1 of a Kind Hand Painted Customized Sneakers

A slightly later but still early rise for this Tuesday in California was to make the first ferry ride out to Alcatraz Island. Long story short if you ever make it out be sure to go to an early tour and listen to the free audio tour. I found some great inspiration on the visit of the island and penitentiary. Later in the afternoon my friends and I met with Jon of Fully Laced. Jon took us to a few shops and a great little Mexican restaurant. Next we found our way to the Union Square shopping district for a little window shopping at places like Louis Vuitton, Ed Hardy, Christian Audigier, NikeTown, John Varvatos, Lacoste, and a bunch of others. Sadly I was a few too many blocks away from theHundreds store on Post St. and out of time by 7 p.m. when they closed.

We arrived at a stop on Mason St. to take a ride on the famous San Francisco Cable Cars. The novice photographer that I am, I took no good photos of the cars themselves. The four of us ended up having a few beers at a small deli. There we met a guy named Ramon WAY into blue grass music and another guy on business from Spain for a company name Aries, who we had a great conversation with about renewable energy and whatnot.

The rest of the night had us visit an great pizza joint called Golden Boy Pizza. I was a traditionalist and had pepperoni while my friends went crazy and tried the clam and garlic. Eventually we ran into a bar and listed to a live band by the name of Still Time, who were kinda folk alternative rock. Who we thought were saying they are from St. Louis and we're like yeah, cool Missouri. I found they are from SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA. The bar had a great small atmosphere I just love.

Finally trying to get on the public trans our buddy lost his pass so the four of us split into two. I decided we would get off a couple blocks early and experience more of the SF nightlife with a little walk to the hotel. Stopping to check out a few street artists along the way I finally made it to theHundreds SF store. Took a couple photos and called it a night as we made it to the hotel.

This cell is crazy no bed or nothing.

Looking out on the courtyard.

Time capsule from 1973 to be opened 100 years later on May 3, 2073. I'd love to both open and fill up one of these some day.

Real cool storefront signage right here. I remember us looking for it and I could see it 3 blocks away.

Finally made it to theHundreds SF. Actually pretty glad I got a few photos with the sign glowing.

I had completely forgot about how they had a color changing floor accent installed at the door. Obviously I'm a huge fan of that. Unfortunately I took horrible photos with my horrible camera, so next time if you wish to have a better documentation feel free to make a donation via PayPal to the "Get Evolved Footwear a Better Camera Fund" over there in the right column. Ha. But seriously I need a new camera.

Up next: Day 3 or 4 with at least one Golden Gate Bridge photo or like 45.
