This year our trip to the Caribbean was later than usual, longer than usual and further away than usual. En route to Hawai'i, the new Caribbean, we stopped in San Francisco where Jane and Sarah had bubble tea here as Suzanne posed with this model Scott and Jane posed and after recording the peace tower we recorded the remains of the night before for some people and then walked past Webster Street and along our way trailed by Suzanne and Sarah until we came to the corner store where this was the menu these were the girls Scott and Suzanne and me and this was the food we ate

before we headed on towards Golden Gate Park past this interesting tree passing gardens as Jane, Suzanne and Sarah posed and we stopped at a refreshment stand for water but not to water these aloes which had nice flowers already and so we walked on past the statue of Cervantes the sphinx (of sorts) a sundial and sculpture past actors doing something in the park and on towards the Japanese Tea Garden pausing for Suzanne and Sarah and Scott and Jane to pose before we made our way into the garden and admired the flowers

until we came to a little hut where Jane and Sarah headed in so that I could capture Scott, Sarah, Jane and Suzanne before we went back to flowers and fish in the pond followed by more flowers and trees

as Suzanne Scott and Jane paused and I took this selfie with Suzanne and then this photo of me and Jane was taken before we noted more flowers with an explanation followed by some beautiful flowers

including some out of focus though Suzanne, Jane and Scott were in focus before we returned to see more flowers

leading to the pagoda where Jane went to pose inside and out as we read an informational sign about the pagoda and headed along admiring the flowers and scenery

until we came to the high bridge which Jane and Scott climbed. We then headed to Jane and Scott's apartment for some reinforcements and watched some streaming video before heading to Sarah's apartment via a gruesome Uber ride to see John and Amanda as Sarah and Ed gave us a reason to toast. We went to Fog city for dinner where these were the drinks this was the menu and this was the meal consisting of many tasty and photogenic dishes.
