So our final day in San Fran we did some cool things: we visited the fortune cookie factory where two little old ladies make 10,000 cookies A DAY; Theresa got a haircut; and we went to the world’s longest running musical revue, a topical parody show called Beach Blanket Babylon which was fantastic! Great political commentary and huge, huge hats. Fun!
Straight afterwards we were back to San Jose to bed because the next morning we were up bright and early for Saturday morning soccer! I had a great time being a sports photographer for the morning..
Great little players! The coolest thing about the games for me was after the team handshakes the parents make a tunnel for the players to run through while giving them hi-fives. Such a cool tradition!
Last night we did some babysitting so Pete and Kim could have some time out. There were cartoons, candy and a whole lot of silliness! As a bedtime story we told them the story of how Maui fished up New Zealand – one liked it, one was skeptical and one thought it lacked stormtroopers. We need to work on our storytelling game.
Today was awesome. We went out to the Santa Cruz boardwalk and it was so much fun!!
There was a new addition to the Hanaray Clan – David the minion. It took some time and effort to get him though.
We hit carousel #4 in our world collection!
And had a blast on the ferris wheel..
We have had the most amazing time with the Hanaray family here in San Jose – we are heading to New York tomorrow and I am ridiculously excited but also so sad to leave because they are all so cool. We are already planning when we can come back!
Week one of our trip has been amazing – bring on week two!
