Next morning, we met again for breakfast
at Cafe Divine
and had our drinks
and then biscuits and gravy for Ben
a bagel for me
Omelettes for Sarah and Suzanne
and waffles for Jane
before the waiter
took our picture
and we recorded the check
and then drove off to Berkeley where we parked the car
and saw this sticker for a cause which didn't win
as Ed appeared fresh from buying a car
and here was the car
and we made our way through the class of 1954 gate
and the dismount zone
and by the campanile
to the boards advertising the graduates in the class of 2010
who could do many things but could not pass Proposition 19
even as we admired the statue
and marched into town
past this obligatory phone booth photo (which tells it like it is)
into a store that sold this T shirt
and then to a street merchant selling all manner of tie dyed clothing which Jane admired
as we made our way to the shoe store to get shoes for many of us
and then began our journey back to the car but first stopped to see a wedding gathering
and then a fire hydrant shaped like a bear
and one shaped otherwise
as we made our way to Chez Panisse
where the menus came
and the bread
which kept Jane
Ed
Sarah
Ben
Suzanne
and me going
as beer
cider
and Straus milk came
along with our meals of curious description.
|
along with the water pitcher that had the restaurant name etched into it
and coffee
and an ice cream dessert
and some chocolate
to stimulate more attempts to get the etched name in a photo
before the bill came
complete with details
and we took a final photo before heading off.
After a break, we walked down the path past these beautiful plants
into the night
but not after Mark Twain
as we made our way
to the cable car but while waiting learned that Lizzie Just had gotten engaged
and so after recording the sign left from the World Series
and the fare rules
we boarded for our ride (and a last bit of San Francisco sightseeing)
|
as I noted my ticket
and the car we passed
before we reached the Japanese restaurant which gave us warnings
and edamame
and dumplings
and left the opportunity to switch glasses so that this was Sarah with Suzanne's
Suzanne with Sarah's
Jane with mine
Sarah with mine
and me with Sarah's
before some of our meal came and we concluded that the rest might never come
and so we began the trek home past this cute sign
and the least of the beat street signs.
