eXplOrAtIOn

After arriving in California, finally. I found it to be georgeous, at least the coastal area... or I should say the undeveloped areas. The city was nice, as cities are. There is a good public transport system and you can walk pretty much wherever you need to go, except when it's raining. I mention this because this is what I dealt with majority of time I was there.

After traveling down the coast a bit, Richard and I caught a ride into town with Erik, on his way to work. We explored the Embarcadero area and walked down to Pier 39, the warf area. That's where the x-mas tree was. There were also sea lions hanging out on wooden flats on the water.
Christmas day was a lazy day of maying around and I was able to catch up on my rest. Then we went for our Christmas dinner, which of course was a chinese dinner, the only type of restaurant open on December 25th in the U.S.A., not that it's a christian country or anything... just ask our president.
