lo and behold...it was actually very nice in the city this weekend. and as a result, we both got a few shades darker. partly because we were in the sun quite a bit and...sadly...also because we forgot to wear sunblock. oh well.
our dear friend pattie finally came back from taiwan and to celebrate, her husband threw a surprise picnic for her at tilden park (in the berkeley hills). it was gorgeous there on saturday! we had lots of fun catching up with pattie and manu, walking along the lake, and playing with maya and kerby (the dogs). there were a lot of trails around, but since we didn't wear hiking shoes, we made a note to go back in the very near future for a day of hiking.
saturday night, we got to see our other friend shirley (who was visiting from san diego). it was great catching up with shirley as well and doing what we do best...eat! after a huge meal at citrus club, we went to crepevine for some delicious dessert. maybe the title should read...three days of sun and fat!
no pictures to show, but on sunday, we walked all around downtown, made our way to japantown, and then found our way back home. all without driving! while downtown, we had a refreshing lunch at david's (an old deli across from the curran theatre)...and egg and onion sandwich on rye. who knew i'd be able to eat raw onions! it was actually quite yummy and refreshing!
monday...labor day...laundry day! we were supposed to wake up at 7am, do laundry, and be ready for a day of relaxation and fun, but we didn't get to the laundry-mat until 9:45am and didn't start our day of fun until 2pm! it was SO warm in our area, we actually made our way to the beach! seriously! eugene wanted to go swimming (he was so cute...he put on his swimming trunks, brought a towel, and was ready to jump in). but...just because the air is nice and warm doesn't mean the water is. it was ice-cold!!!!!!!!! so, we just enjoyed a nice sweet walk along the beach. i think i've had enough sun for a year. :P
