trip re-cap

Untitled Untitled Untitled

Probably my favorite place we visited was the Sutro Baths!  Really nice views, nice old foundations, and a good visitor center that explained the history.  I picked up a good book there that talks about all the lost architecture of San Francisco.

The Palace of Fine Arts, we walked through here twice because once is clearly not enough!  I can't believe it's the only thing left from the P-CE, but can't complain, at least there's something!

Don't think I've ever seen a pineapple grow so this was exciting to me, maybe just to me though.
Untitled Jennifer, Arnaud, and her new baby Cléas met us one day and give us a walking tour around their neighborhood in the castro. (I'm so sad I didn't take any pictures!) Jennifer gave me copy of her Round Robin Books (you may remember this video from a little bit ago!) You can get a copy of the books here. Untitled

Muir Woods - it smelled so good here!  We got there early in the morning, so it was nice to be able to feel the temperature change from being really cool in the forest to warmer late morning.

We stayed at a tiny cottage tucked behind another house.  I really love the color, aqua is one of my favorite colors to have on furniture or a building.

I met Shara the day before we left! We had a snack at a cafe and walked around the mission. I visited her studio and got one of her Marina shirts, twins!

Lunch snacks at the Tea House at the Japanese Garden.  That was some good matcha!

So, clearly it's easy to want to move here after returning to Boston.  Luckily the crocuses started to bloom over the weekend, so hopefully spring isn't too far away!

SF!

 Hello! We are in San Francisco! The weather is amazing! Why do I live in New England?! I never want to see snow again. Well. Maybe that's not true, but close to it right now. I've eaten so much good food and there's still a week left for me to eat more food; I'll have to grow a second stomach -  that doesn't even include the separate dessert stomach.  Already we have covered a lot of territory - from bookstores to hikes to riding a silly two person bike (not a tandem, something else!) it seems there are endless things to do.

vacation

sf trip We're leaving to go to San Francisco next week - looks like it's going to be in the 60s and I'm gleefully happy about that. While I'm not in any position to purchase anything at the moment, but if I was, the following things are enticing:

- a fuzzy sweater
- um, a classic mini would be amazing (this above everything would be the most desired, as a side note)
- carven sunglasses
- clearly I'm modest but what can I say, this is my favorite wallet
- light colored denim shorts
- I'm coming to terms with the fact that I have a soft spot for the LV Sofia Coppola PM & GM bags.  I never though the day would come where I admitted this, but it's very true.
- some burgundy flats
