| | Denise poses in front of our stylish digs... the Hotel Grant | |
| | | We spared no expense... it's right around the corner from the Sir Francis D... | |
|
| | Luxury appointments and broadband internet... for one at a time. | |
| | | The first evening, we walked up to Tommaso's | |
|
| | We chose the pizza Napolitano, spaghetti/ravioli in a Marinara with meatball. | |
| | | I forgot my camera, so we have to settle for these stock photos. | |
|
| | Denise didn't go for the Budweiser gelato or the avocado, so we got coffee. | |
| | | Coffee, tea and pastry at this hip cafe at Union Square | |
|
| | The dive-bombing blackbirds from Nevada City were stalking Denise | |
| | | I told her to relax and enjoy the combo espresso bar / aviary. | |
|
| | Denise finally warmed up to her new friend and even shared her pastry. | |
| | | We went to Chinatown, where we saw many firsts... California's first cathedral | |
|
| | On the Lord's Day, we worshipped at the First Chinese Baptist Church on Wav... | |
| | | Checked out the latest Sino-fashions | |
|
| | Had lunch at Sam Wo's where you enter through the kitchen and head upstairs. | |
| | | The decor? Raw! The food comes up on a dumbwaiter. | |
|
| | We enjoyed some wonderful tea and chow fun. | |
| | | Later, we visited cousin Brian in his stylish pad in the Marina district. | |
|
| | He's got a pretty decent view, nes pas? | |
| | | It was a wonderful weekend, but we had to head back to the mainland. | |
|
| | Our trip was capped off by a luncheon engagement with Camille. | |
