We rented a gorgeously modern, tri-level house off of Airbnb, located a few blocks from the Castro Theater. Our trip was planned somewhat last minute and we didn’t realize it was scheduled the same week as Google I/O, a VMWare conference, and the SF Pride March. Hotel rooms for three people were astronomically priced. This place ended up being better than any hotel would’ve been.

The Castro neighborhood was a beautiful mix of classic and modern architecture. Houses were painted brightly, and necessities like food and coffee were within walking distance. I know it can get crazy there from time to time, but I really enjoyed walking through the area.

One night, I met up with Gray (pictured below), a friend from Columbia, at Anchor Oyster Bar on Castro Street. It’s the kind of place you might walk right on by if you didn’t know better. I’m not a huge seafood fan, but the oysters were exceptional.
