I'll leave my heart....

Japanese Tea Garden

I think I'll move to California.

In a packed day on Friday, I strolled though Berkeley, dipped a toe (OK, a sneaker) into the Pacific Ocean and drove through Golden Gate Park, stopping for a walk through the Japanese Tea Garden, followed by tea and treats.

On the way home, we took photos at the Golden Gate Bridge just as the setting sun cast the perfect light on it.

With views of the bay from so many different directions it is just simply intoxicating.

Today we had Dim Sum in Oakland's Chinatown, walked in the woods and finished the day with the San Francisco happening, Beach Blanket Babylon, the longest-running musical revue in the country.

With wigs to die for, this up-to-date satire melds pop-culture figures with show tunes, capturing the San Francisco spirit like nothing else.

Check it out:

Tomorrow we're going to Nancy's yacht club to watch the Americas Cup and then to Muir Woods, followed by dinner in Sausalito...if we can fit it all in.

I doubt I'll have trouble sleeping on the plane home tomorrow night.
