Saturday

Hmm, well when i came back from Ohio i had planned to have a relaxing finish to the week. Well that night (wednesday) Jeff got a phone call from an old high school friend, Matt. matt was bored and wanted entertainment. He was in San Francisco, just a few hour away and wanted jeff to visit. So on Thurs jeff and i drove the 250 miles to castro valley to visit Matt and his roomate Gino. We used Mapquest and did not get lost once. When we met matt and gino we then went and drove to downtown san fran. We ate at Pier 39 in the Bubbs Gump shrimp restaurant based on Forrest gump. Really really deliscious food. We watched street vendors paint beautiful pictures with spray cans and paper. They then firedried them by lioghting the spray can on fire. Jeff bought me a beautiful picture. We walked around the city and ate ice cream, at ghiridelli square. Yum! We then paid(well jef did) a rather large parkign fee. We brought Matt and Gino back and said goodbye. I think however I passed the friend test. jeff Told me that Matt usually does not talk so much, so i guess that worked.
We then drove to Lafeyette to spend the night at Jackie's house. It was a little odd sleeping in someones house when i had never met her parents, btu what can you do? We watched some tv then Finding Nevrland. i found the movie not quite as depressing as i thought it would be. In the morning, we took the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) to San fran saw the Union square looked at Art work and Ate a a japanese restaurant. It would have been really good, but the fish base soups were a little dissapointing. We then went into Cnina town and i bought about $10 worth of souveniers. Three handpainted scrolls . a set of Health balls two handpainted fans and a set of chopsticks. I think i did pretty well, don't you? we all then headed back to Jackies, dropped her off and headed back. Jackie sent us to Blondie's Pizza. MMMM good pizza, and we were off. and we didn't get lost once on the way back, we then got home safely at 11. Long weekend, well, not yet it hasn't been. Thanks jeff and Jackie for a great time!
