I went to a soccer match?


Two shots from the Chivas/Galaxy game this past Sat.
Decently fun time, can't say I really followed the game, but there was plenty of scoring which kept things interesting.
Buddy of mine had some extra tix, so, I guess that's why I went....

Bad pic, funnier story


Here is a fuzzy photo of Kirsten's leg. The background is more so whats important. SF airport, hours and hours of looking at the walls of SF airport.
We got all checked in around 3:15, and walking to our gate found that the plane was delayed by two hours.
The Southwest flight before ours left at 3:30, and the Southwest flight after ours left at 7:10. With the new delay our flight was going to leave at 7:05.
At that point, nothing to do but spend a beautiful Sunday near the city sitting in a airport.
Had we bothered to check beforehand, there are two other airports Southwest uses each about the same distance away from our starting point as SFO.
Oh well....

In the City (at night)










Here we are all dressed up that evening outside the event. (good hair).

That's Kirsten's boss and her husband.
This is a snap from inside the event located at the Palace of Fine Arts. What I was really trying to capture in this moment was the platters of shrimps, thousands, no exaggeration, thousands. Yeah I was all over those, stacking 20 at a time on a plate. Yeah yeah, fatty fatty, but events like this don't happen often, so theres my excuse.


In the City


Kirsten's work had their annual event, hosted by the Nor Cal office. I always look for an excuse to get up to the city, and nothing beats a free party.

We did some of the typical site seeing activities Sat morning, those pix are listed in this post.





This first photo is of us crossing over the bridge into town. We drove up from Walnut Creek that morning, after visiting Heyne and Kathrine.

We hit the streets as soon as we arrived, and here is just a snap near union square. The sun was out in full force this weekend, and so were the people!










We rode the trolleys from the square to the wharf. This was the last stop on the line.









I'm relaxing in the sun after a ice cream sundae from Ghiradellis.












Riding the side board of the trolley looking tough and stuff. bad hair.










Sunday morning, but I didn't know where else to put this pic. We were driving around looking for the entrance to Golden Gate park, and went up some small side road. This old building was at the end. It looks like it was some sort of manufacturing plant at one time. The building is seriously straight out of some 80's vampire movie. The graffiti, the broken out windows, the giant brick entrance, all the important basics are there. Oh, also a mobile police command is stationed in the front entrance behind several layers of fencing. I guess the city is trying to reign in this local hot spot.

Zach + Christina in Long Beach







Zach and his wife Christina visted us for the weekend. Great times, we went all over long beach and parts of Orange.
Here are some snaps from Sat afternoon near the light house in the marina.
You can see our condo from one of the pics, the other is a cool tree lined walk way the wraps around the light house mini peninsula.
Quite a change in weather from snowy, cold Sandy Oregon for those two.
Zach and I went out surfing one morning, but maybe the high point of the trip was the first afternoon where we went for some half yards and grub at the yard house.
