... crowns" (learned this from watching "The Wire"), very elaborate and expensive hats. Then on to Michele and David's house, a perilous ride involving many cell phone calls to them to figure out where the hell we were, to chat and say good-by. They are wonderful together, affectionate and fun. We managed to get to the airport, return the rental car, buy a "wrap" for dinner on the plane, count up babies in the waiting area and calculate ...

... band played jazz and the singer resembled Betty Boop, and most of the patrons were dressed in Swing era clothing. The dancing was incredible, the setting was incredible, the music.. well, incredible. It almost made me want to live in LA , knowing that this goes on every Sunday. So we had a fantastic time , Brady, Gil and I (Kiri and friend had to head back to SD) and i think I almost cried when the guest singer, Johnny Holiday came out and sounded exactly like his uncle, Bing ...

... are absolutely full (they are mostly wine bars here - so 1980s) - so much so that there is nowhere to have a relaxing drink.... Saturday, October 25, 2008 Had another excellent day! Weather perfect - clear blue sky. Started the day with a drive; went down the crooked road, then over the 'Golden gate' bridge and then toured the Golden Gate Park. The crooked road was very crooked, the bridge very large and the Park expansive and being well used (as it was a ...

... to bees. Phew. One landed on my purse. I noticed it there when it stung me. Shrug. I had no idea stings hurt that much and last that long. Oy! Most of the walk was flat until the end when you climb up onto the bridge. I walked about 1/2 way across the bridge to catch the view of the city (1/2 a mile to center). And then of course I walked back. Interesting to note, I was one of very few people walking back. I ...

... bike ride from a major American city. I have to admit I went to a bakery for lunch and had one of the best chicken salad sandwiches on sourdough (of course), I have had in a while. It was the size of my forearm - and no mum I did not eat it all I only ate half and teamed it with a raisin cookie and skim cappuccino which has to be seen to be believed. So it was back on my bike and I rode another 10 miles into a place called old mill park which houses old growth ...

... laugh though was when I was walking along the beach and a young guy came running up to me and grabbed me then ran away to his laughing mates - I think I became part of a truth or dare game - 'go tag the tourist' he did not look like he was trying to fleece me and his dad was a bit futher down the beach quite bemused by his son's antics and apologising like mad. Time to arrive in San Francisco - and instantly ...

... Point Lighthouse nearby. Each summer we visit for at least one busy week of fun with family and friends. This two weeks was no different. We had a couple of days' down time before Alex's brother, Dave and his wife, Doleen, came up for the weekend to attend a cousin's naval retirement ceremony festivities in Brunswick. Amy's mom, Tricia, her husband, Carl, and Amy's brother, Bryan also came up to spend a week in Maine, first with the Hoods in New Harbor and then with ...
