We got up Sunday and headed back home, everything was closed for the Holiday and we finally found a decent place to eat. Needless to say my sister and I were getting a little tired of kids’ food types but didn’t pick a good day to insist on “real” food (further defined as restaurants where we went inside and had real knives and glasses, ha). Traffic was moderate but not too bad. When we got home the Easter Bunny had in fact visited and it was a big time. We brought Don fine wines and real sourdough bread from San Francisco so he was very happy. I was just happy to get to my big tub. Yes, I know I write about my big tub a lot but it is one of my true luxuries in life to have a hot soak with lots of bubbles, not something in abundance flying through life.
What started this whole trip was Lincoln’s obsession with seeing the Golden Gate Bridge. Well we’ve seen it, from top to bottom, toured Chinatown and Fisherman’s Wharf. Been fun but time to head south, hopefully to warmer weather and work our way back home. Headed to L. A. for tonight, play a charity event at the Bike on Saturday then home sweet home on Sunday. Been an awful lot of fun …and with the exception of the big bag of fresh garlic I bought in Gilroy, CA (garlic capital of the world) which is now smelling up the car, a good trip.
We stayed about 40 miles from SF as there was a Hilton (the kids favorite), movies, good food and shopping and we were ready to get off the road. Lincoln and I went to the movie and Kat took Sierra swimming, fun time.
This morning we went to my good friend Tony Fazio’s home in the heart of San Francisco and got the grand tour. Weather held for four hours before the bottom dropped out and it rained buckets. We finally got back to our hotel late.
