Savoca
Went for a run around downtown LA. Streets were pretty empty. Not particularly nice run, but it’s a city run. The area down around the Disney concert hall was nice and it was nice to see the building for my first job out of college at 400 S. Hope St. After I got back, I…

SwissAir LX38
This might be the first time we’ve flown SwissAir. This was the last and main leg of our flight back from Barelona and specifically was ZRH to SFO. Since i had booked this with United miles and in the economy cabin, we were seated at the back of the bus. The first little snack of…

I placed my Stroopwafel on top of of…

The Bungalow Kitchen
We were expecting pretty nice weather on this Saturday so I always think about doing my favorite run to Tiburon. I’m working to get myself back into shape, but was comfortable doing 16 miles so I had Andrea drop me off at the Sports Basement in the Presidio by Crissey Field (If I do this…

The Cedar Restaurant
Had dinner at the local Lebanese restaurant in Trisha’s neighborhood of West Hampstead. We had quite a feast, which is part of the fun eating out as a group since we can order a big variety of dishes (granted we over-ordered, but this just meant leftovers for later). Andrea and I both started off with…

Bébé Bob
After spending our afternoon at the AIRE Ancient Baths soaking in the baths and getting massages, we headed for dinner here at Bébé Bob. Trisha had eaten here before and since she knows we love caviar, this was a fun place to go for dinner. We started with a round of Bébé Lyan Martini’s (ice…
