Hayward Days Inn Airport

... them semi-professionals on the dance floor. Rach and Ben kindly said I managed to keep up and not embarrass them or myself too much!!!

At 11 we left and headed further into North Beach to another bar that was playing live music and after listening to a couple of sets, Ben wanted to head back as he had a full day of work planned, for the next day. So he dropped us off at the Tipsy Pig and continued on with our very chatty taxi driver originally from ...

... to 10 degrees with a colder wind it wasn't the spot to be, but it gave us a good view of field and the Bay beyond. The stadium is right on the water and the home fans keep a track of how many home runs are hit into the drink! Last count was 47, but we don't know when they started counting... presumably when the new stadium was built! Somehow we were seated in a row with some other Aussies... like being at the bloody cricket! On Tuesday I got Brooke on a ...

... at Puerto Allegre tonight (more awesome mexican food) with Julie, Bobby, Meaghann, Bel and Bill tonight. Was a relaxed , happy little farwell to some lovely friends in a lovely city. All going to plan I'll see Julie and Bobby in Chico nect weekend and will be back in SF to see everyone else later in the year. Fingers crossed. And there's the breif synopsis. Nothing too dramatic, just much needed relaxation :) Time for Chico!

... in and out of Chicago. The estimated delay was 1-2 hours. Finally the plane arrived at Buffalo airport and I apporached the airline representative that was finally here to see to boarding that there was no way that I would make my connection at Chicago so they moved me to a later flight. Great. We actually got on board about 12:40pm and once seated the pilot announced that we will be delayed at least a further hour. The groans were audible but the cabin crew were great and explained ...

... a card popped out), and apparently I'm a virtuous person, but I have some trouble with the devil..."The devil will get you if you don't watch. out." I also had my next career predicted, and I guess it's in the stars for me to practice psychiatry. And, I learned what my friends call me behind my back: wild (huh? I don't think ANYONE has ever described me that way). I tried to get to the crookedest street (Lombard), but somehow ...

... baseball was eating hot dogs and popcorn and all that other stadium food but we had bread and cheese! Oh yes, and we went to a baseball game - New York Mets v. San Francisco Giants which was really cool and a walking tour: "naughty and bawdy" downtown and a night walking tour of Northbeach and a comedy club and lunch ...

... After the meeting, we decided to go to Sausalito. It was a much nicer, sunnier day, so a good day to be a tourist. I know I've been to Sausalito before, but I was a kid, and really don't remember it. Now that we've seen a bit of this area, I can understand why people are so enamored with it. Even though this is a busy city area, it has a completely different feel. A strong sense of community not typical to cities. And everything is so CUTE. Cute houses ...

I woke up with the worst hangover I've had in a long time. I was so tempted to turn off my alarm clock and collapse back to sleep, but I knew that it would be worth it if I could Just. Drag. Myself. Out. Of. Bed. I was going to the 9am mass at Glide, a Methodist church across from my hotel, to hear the gospel choir - something I've always wanted to experience. My guidebook said it was a progressive church that preached social justice and did work with area's ...

Jan 22, 1928 my parent's were married in Yonkers, NY. A big celebration was planned for their Fiftieth Anniversary and I wanted to be there. So I traveled from Hayward, CA to join them and relatives and friends. Decided to go by bus rather than fly or drive. Took several days. Met Rosie Sharpe from London on the bus. She says she likes to visit the colonies from time to time. Stayed in touch for a while and spent a week in London at her house in 1980.
