4th July San Francisco Bay Area

What a trip! Arrived Friday PM in Oakland, our favorite waterfront hotel. Nice evening swim, then out for BBQ dinner, then ice cream. Ooops, forgot to mention Cha Cha lessons.
Saturday: Ferry into San Francisco, lots of walking, good fun, great sites and food (great Italian dinner North Beach). Then, back to Oakland, quick stop by our hotel then BART to Oakland A’s game (extra innings!) + Fireworks! We arrived back to Hotel at 1:00am!
Sunday: Back into SF for the CA science museum etc etc, ..all day long! then Golden Gate Park plus sight-seeing. Eventually back to Oakland for an awesome dinner.
Monday (July 4th) Bagels in Oakland, then to Piedmont (east Oakland) to meet the White family and the great Piedmont 4th July parade (Yes Mr+Mrs White were in the parade!) we watched it with our friend Claire White. Great small town fun and festivities!

Eventually headed east -early dinner in downtown Sacramento then back to Reno USA! Wow, what a weekend!

Hike in our own town …

Not far from our house there is a Trailhead (Wedekind Regional Park Disk Trailhead) and we’ve been here before. But we had never take the time to go up to the top …so today was the day. Hot weather and Zoey so it would be extra good!

What a fun place and we found some stacked rocks and hand-painted congrete top …looked like a cache of some sort!! and sure enough we found some carefully wrapped notpad journals that a nice family had left and many people had shared the journey of their trips. We’ll go back and share more details …but suffice to say it made for some good fun …as we hiked around the top and took in the scenery. Enjoy the pics and video….
