San Francisco







October 22-27 we took a vacation to San Francisco California. It was a really great time. Thank God the flights were not miserable like the last time. The first full day of fun was going to Napa Valley doing wine tasting. What fun that was. We stopped to eat and I had the best portabella mushroom burger I have ever sank my teeth into. After eating we decided to ditch our plan due to non stop traffic and went to an off street and try the vineyards there. We went to Mumm Vineyard where they make champagne and they had an Ansel Adams photo exhibit. It was awesome.
The next day was spent cheering the Oakland Raiders to victory.
Day 3 we packed up and headed to our hotel at Fisherman's Warf. On the way we stopped off at Cafe gratitude a raw vegan restaurant. The food was really good and so was the atmosphere. The food was great. Mike said his soup tasted like grass. However he did enjoy the place and even said that if I could prepare food like that he could possible eat this way. The flavors were good. The vegan cheesecake was the best. All of the food had name like "I am joyful" "I am cheerful" and when they served it to you they would say "you are joyful" after eating you felt good. Later that day we went to fisherman's warf and then to Japan town.
Day 4 was more time at fisherman's warf and China town where I love to shop. They have all kinds of cool things. Later that day we took a boat tour out to Golden Gate Bridge and around alcatraz
Day 5 was spent in airports and getting home so that I could go to work the next day.
