day 1,2,4,5 of 17 - in Berkeley > 1:29 PM.
We took Cathay Pacific from Singapore to HK for transit before flying over to our final destination SF (:
We arrived at SFO at about 2pm and head over to Zilin's place at Berkeley.
We were so tired that we slept straight till 8pm. Managed to catch pretty sunset from her room (:
First meal we had in Berkeley is Bobbly G's pizza! (: it's yummy and special!

Day 2 and we head over to UC Berkeley to take a look! (:
The place is pretty and a total different environment as compared to NUS.
The greens, grass lawn and the building architecture is lovely! and we can see students sitting or lying on grass picnic-ing or studying everywhere. This is certainly not seen in NUS haha.


and we ended Day 2 with shopping at Old Navy! (: cheap and nice!
Day 4 was SHOPPING!
We started the day with car rental at Enterprise, choosing the car we like and after some test drive around the neighbourhood, off we went to Vacaville Factory Outlet! it's big with east and west wing and a total of 93 stores! (:
Oh yes, must praise Dars for his excellent driving skill too! (:

On Day 5 before we drove down to LA, we went for Berkeley's annual chalk and chocolate festival! (:
Now we understand why the Americans like sipping tea and watching life goes on a weekend morning cause we did it too and it's awesome! (:
The chocolate and chalk festival is really special and we had a chance to try out different chocolate made food and dessert along with many cute children drawing on the roadside using chalk! (:
