When Tony and I rolled into San Francisco late Thursday night we were pretty tired but excited.  Even the trip over was a bit adventurous, courtesy of a late day at work and our beloved Los Angeles traffic.  To make a long story short, we actually squeaked into a flight we were already resigned to missing.

Tony was busy for part of Friday, so I wandered around the ferry building and took some pictures.  The weather was gorgeous, moody but dry, with patches of glorious sun.  A day wandering around San Francisco can look a little something like this.

Pacman on building windows and funny, toothy statues, how could I resist taking pictures?

me:  Tony, can you come a little closer please?  Ok.. good.  Can you tilt your head a little this way?  Make a face.

Tony:  Like this?

me:  Yes, perfect.  <click>

Tony:  What was that for?

me: ... nothing.

The man inside smiled and waved after he caught me snapping a shot.  Tony still thinks I am a stalker.  But don't leave doors open where I can peek inside them if you don't want your picture taken.

All in all, it was a pleasant (partially rainy) weekend around the Bay area filled with good friends and good food.  I got to see Kelly and Andrew's fabulous pad, tried to "read" a book to a toddler, and had my Hong Kong style food craving fulfilled.  On Sunday we boarded back onto the plane and bid adieu... for now. :)

Kelly (the sunset house):

Lovely. :) Thanks for the tip about Hyde Street Pier. I visited last week, but they had already closed the gates. I'll have to check it out again soon.

See you on Sunday!

Tony Wei:

Wow, those were some nice shots from the plane! Maybe I'll try to stay awake next time we fly up to SF so I won't miss the views. :-)

I like the beached rowboat. Did you make the oar stroke marks in the sand? Very quirky. :)

Phoebe:

Thanks! They were actually already there when we got there, otherwise it would have been very tempting to sit inside the boat and add them in! :)
