Day Eleven Hot day

Today it will be hot, so I decided to go at the ocean..with the camera
I took the bus #5, which leaves you exactly at the ocean...few steps and you are with the feet in the sand..so good, hot sand under the feet...delicious
The bus was really crowded, how nice it must be to have the beach nearby?

Day Nine - Broadway Show

It's a windy sunday and we got tickets to the Wicked at 2pm at the Orpheum Theatre. No parking place easy to find as usual and we got late (nothing new). The show was good, but I expected something else..this is the bad when you have expectation.
Quite evening and a great dinner at Destino, peruan specific.
Did I mention that I love to eat? Yep, I enjoyed it so much.

Day Eight by foot & Tea Time

This was a day for downtown..in China Town, by foot in two pairs :-)
On the way, I discovered a great tea bar, Samovar, must try it.
And I re-discovered tea and had the pleasures of tea testing..I see now TEA in a different special way, thanks to my best friend.

Day Seven SF

I don't know where the days are rushing..I feel the speed of time and I want to slow down..Today I got into contact with Shambala..I was like a child, fully open and prepared for anything or everything...was refreshingly free..my mind stopped at some point, I was watching and listening trying to get it all at once...I felt good and during the next moments, I don't know when, through my head went thousands of questions..I stopped listening and just watched the lips moving...it was peaceful on one side and I felt tension on the other side..so many questions..
how many people were new there? how many people came?how many had friends? how many came just to be?how many came for answers? what are the answers they are looking for? what is this community? what do they want to learn?am I fitting to now and here?why am I here?what is my lesson of today?am I here now?
Berkeley was good.
Could it be because it was day 7?

Day Six SF

New day, different me...I started to become lazy, better without camera..easy to go shopping..time to check the bookstores. Contact with Borders..I believe I spend there about 4 hours and forget about myself and the time, I have to come back another day...
I received some recommendation on movies to watch...started, but not finished...I just plan to see them another day when the weather will be less sunny...
I played with the cat...kind of relaxing :-) the SF cat.

Foggy morning and after a nice breakfast I am hitting again the streets. It's a beautiful sunny days, the buildings look great. My decision is to go again through the green, with my dreamer thoughts.
