On our San Francisco Food Tour of North Beach\Little Italy and Chinatown, it??s interesting how we can see evidence of Californian??s attachment to our open space. Whether it??s the fresh fruits and vegetables, the fresh flowers, photographs of our open space, or paintings by local artists, they all refer to and highlight our attachment to our open space. On our San Francisco Food Tours, we see open space in a variety of ways, it can be a local park, it can be looking across the bay and see Angel Island, a state park, or it just be seeing the sky over the bay or the ocean., Whatever it is, it reminds us of how close that we are to our open space here. Our parks here define who we are. While other places may talk about some work project for the weekend, we talk about the great hike or walk that we??re planning or that we??ve done. It may be reason that we enjoy walking so much. We get to reconnect with the environment that is around us, something that you just can??t do inside a bus or a car. When you??re walking, you get feel and experience everything around you. You??re actually part of it, rather than just viewing it. And that could be a great definition of a Californian, someone who wants to part of the environment that is around them.
