Description View from Twin Peaks
I waited many hours on top of Twin Peaks to take this picture of the city at Night. It was an amazing view over this wonderful city...but it was amazingly cold and windy

This really made me happy, but sad and depressed. As I had lived in the Bay Area for at least 11-12 years of my life I had to move one year and this was one of the last places I visited with my family before we moved.

I thank you for taking this photo.

Wow, I bet it brings back a lot of memories of the time when you lived in the Bay Area
Twin Peaks is a great place...I don't want to say the greatest place in San Francisco, but definetly one of the most awesome ones. I came back every evening I've spent in S.F. but it was always rainy and you couldn't see a thing. Luckily, on the last day we've spent there it was sunny...and I had the chance to take this picture!

I'm really glad to hear you like it! Thanks

It sure does.
It really is one of the awesome ones, but it's too bad that a lot of the place has graffiti on it.
That's S.F for ya, always foggy or raining. XD It's great that you were able to get such a clear pic! You should go up there near Christmas time when it's dark. Market stree is all lit up and it's really beautiful~

You're very welcome!

If you get the possibility to go there, do it!
It's just different to other big cities, especially to american cities. Of course it's still a city and I'd prefer the countryside, even though I currently live in Frankfurt.

I live out in the countryside.
Different? From other American cities? How so?

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-01-25 17:13:39 +0000 UTC]

It just feels different to NYC or L.A.
It's a rather compact city where it's no problem to walk from one side to the other and people seem to be just different. Don't ask me why, but it just feels this way!
It's just a special city.

shadowvaen In reply to Vipallica [2012-01-26 02:44:05 +0000 UTC]

I really wanna live there. It's like my dream.
I've heard that it was different, that the people
were different. I wasn't sure if it was true, but
I keep hearing the same things. I really wanna live there.
Seems like the best place to be.

Of course it is still a big city, but we met awesome people and had a very good time! It's an amazing place.

I have this will to just travel and see the
world. But you've kinda gotta have a lot of money to do so.
If only the world were simpler.

For me as a German the U.S. were kind of cheap...
Of course it was an expensive holiday because we stayed 6 weeks and drove 11000miles with a rental car...but if you did the same here in Europe it would have been much more expensive!

shadowvaen In reply to Vipallica [2012-02-02 10:27:48 +0000 UTC]

Wow. Six weeks? And a rental car?! Even if it is cheaper over here,
that'd be like...really expensive for me!
Haha. I'd love to tour Europe though. I've only ever just barely
crossed the border into Canada. I've never sailed the seas or
seen another part of the world like that.

By the way: A little example why especially Germany is more expensive: A liter of gas currently costs 1,60 Euro. For a gallon this would mean 7.90 US-$ !

shadowvaen In reply to Vipallica [2012-02-11 10:53:08 +0000 UTC]

No way. And here I was standing at the pump the other day
thinking about how sick it was that I was paying four bucks a gallon. Whoa.

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-02-12 12:06:20 +0000 UTC]

It cost's me nearly 180 US $ to fill up my car...which has a 22 gallons tank

It's been awhile since I've had a car. But the last time I filled mine up, it only cost...40 bucks?

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-02-13 09:28:21 +0000 UTC]


When I was a kid gas did cost half the price it does now. When the Euro was introduced as currency the price was suddenly the double of what it was before...

shadowvaen In reply to Vipallica [2012-02-14 03:07:09 +0000 UTC]

That must have sucked!
I don't know, high gas prices have been around for a long time.
But when I was born they were a bit lower. In some places, that is.

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-02-14 10:59:17 +0000 UTC]

I know that even though the US prices are rather cheap for me they are very expensive for the people living in america. That's one fact that many Germans don't seem to understand...

shadowvaen In reply to Vipallica [2012-02-17 07:38:18 +0000 UTC]

Wow. You'd think they'd understand that the prices
we're stuck with are insane to us. Even if you guys
have it more expensive over there.

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-02-17 10:35:31 +0000 UTC]

It's more expensive over here but I guess people earn more money.
But don't think that I am rich...haha

Vipallica In reply to shadowvaen [2012-02-02 13:16:59 +0000 UTC]

Of course it was still very expensive But yeah...the same thing here in Europe might cost you nearly two times what we paid in the US.

Europe is great, a lot of different cultures and places to go.

Yeah that's true. There's so much to see...
But most of my american friends think like you. But they just don't have the possibilty to travel to Europe and so on.
