Home from San Francisco
Laura and I arrived home late Tuesday night. Our trip literally could not have been better (well - OK. It could've been better if someone else had paid for it). The first night we were in San Francisco everyone was talking about how great the weather was, and it stayed that way all weekend. It was in the 70s and Louise was complaining about how hot it was. I now want to retire in San Francisco, if we could afford it and had a few more family members out there - Jen, you'd love San Francisco. It has some fascinating architecture.
We took Pam and Louise out for dinner in a good Mediterranean restaurant. Louise enjoyed it because she likes everything about where she lives but the food. The next day though her heart pace was out of control and she decided she should stay in. Pam went with us to tour Chinatown and we ate very late at a sushi bar in Japantown, just a block from out hotel. Pam had to leave early Monday morning so Laura and I took the bus out to the Aquatic park and walked from there almost to the Golden Gate bridge. It was great fun, though I got sunburned a bit on my face. I'll describe more of our adventures on the other two blogs in the next day or so, so check Not Mayberry in particular.
Louise seems to be doing well. She likes the hotel she lives in though she complains about the food (which we found not so bad - all the wine you can drink!). She also has trouble seeing, but can still see enough to read if the print is big enough. Her knees effect her mobility but she can still get out and do some things. She goes to an exercise class and on some of the trips organized by the hotel, so I think it is good for her. Pam is waiting to see where Clover ends up and then wants to move near her, I think.
So all in all it was a good trip. Even the flights out and back were more or less on time and not too uncomfortable. We will see everyone in Tampa in about two weeks or so.
