... until nighttime. Our first attempt at German cuisine was a disaster: cold pretzel, tiny sausages, cold cheese arranged in a pool of mustard sauce, and 33% alcohol beer that tasted like a combination of Guiness, port, and vomit. Thanks for the suggestion, Lonely Planet. We're trying somewhere new tonight. Today, we visited our first castle, Castle Schloss, which was built into a mountain on the East side of the city and overlooked the whole ...

... that we unfortunately did not have time to see. Soon we were heading over the Golden Gate bridge (which is VERY windy from the top of a Double Decker bus). The views of the Bay can only be called spectacular. An amazing amount of people were walking or riding bikes over the bridge. A lookout on the Sausalito side of the bridge provided a quick stop for more pictures. Back on the bus, through the Presidio (a former military base turned National Park ...

... hinnat oli ilmoitettu yhteyshenkilölle).<br><br>Oakhurstista ajoimme Santa Cruziin (matkaa 287 km), tähän Kalifornian aurinkoiseen rantalomakaupunkiin. Tiet muuttuivat nopeasti vuoristomaisista mutkittelevista teistä kymmenien kilometrien pituisiksi, kuivien laidunmaiden ympäröimiksi luotisuoriksi. Sää oli muuttunut edellispäivän sadekelistä paahtavaksi auringonpaisteeksi, joten Corollan ilmastointilaitteen pystyi nyt kääntämään l ...

... food to find that the pizza place did not close but simply re-located!  My luck is turning...slightly!After filling my buddha belly I move onto the scary, small movie theatre near my hotel...I'm talking something out of a horror movie...small...with an actual fan going in the theatre - I tried to take a pic but a couple walked in &amp; I was foiled! I saw "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."  I don't care what critics say I thought it was very good ...

... sun setting though, was my first realisation of how much I liked the city. The small crowd and live music in the square gave the place a relaxed, European feel - very different to any city we had visited before on this trip. Once the sun had dropped below the buildings though, the cold air began to make sitting out uncomfortable and we headed up one of the town's many hills to Chinatown gate and beyond in search of the House of Nanking. We sought out this ...

... can send a mail with the description of the painting and the colors we would want it painted in. Yuriy then will mail us some photos of available paintings and this way can we nevertheless get the painting we want. That seems like a good plan to us. Because we want to see the fireworks tonight, we want to freshen up a little in our hotel, so we go to the bus stop at Columbus and we wait, and wait and wait, until someone ...

... healthily and have cut way back on alcohol intake--to nearly nothing. A few weeks ago I joined the gay soccer team here in SF, the SF Spikes. So far it's been great exercise. I have to admit it's weird being one of the older people playing... Can't believe it's already been six months here in San Francisco. Will continue to let life unfold as it will, putting my energies in the direction which most interests and motivates me. Enjoy life. Peace and love.

California scheint schon wied** so lange h**. Die letzten Tage waren nochmal d** Hamm**. Die Loveparade von SF namens "Love Fest" hat mich ganz schoen mitg**issen. Nach 9 Monaten ohne wirklich gute Elektronische Musik, war die V**anstaltung ein Highlight. Noch dazu habe ich hi** Bridget kennen gel**nt, die mich auf die Aft**party (u.a. Chemical Broth**s) geschmuggelt hat und bei d** ich noch ein paar Naechte ueb**nachten konnte. Tolle Huette - wahnsin ...
