On Tuesday June 23rd, I had the awesome opportunity to travel to San Francisco to attend Ford's Digital Trends Conference. It was so amazing that I decided to document this trip because I saw so many amazing landmarks. I stayed in the Grand Hyatt hotel in Union Square, and the first thing I wanted to see were the Hearts in San Francisco: an annual public art installation started in 2004 by the San Francisco General Hospital Foundation for the purpose of fundraising. The project is inspired by the international CowParade exhibit, in which cow sculptures are painted by various artists and installed in various cities throughout the world. The choice of hearts is inspired by the Tony Bennett song "I Left My Heart in San Francisco".
