Patty’s Place

Tonight we went up to the hills of Oakland to Patty & Tom’s place for dinner. The food & wine were excellent, the conversation even better. Of course I had to torment Christine the cat with my camera. I forgot to photograph Willie the Corgi/Golden Retriever mix when he did his tightrope trick.

Last Supper

Last night Mommie & Daddy left for the Philippines. I figured this would be a good test for the Mark II. These are shot at ISO 6400 with a 50mm f1.4 lens. We had our last dinner at the Firewood Grill at SFO International Terminal. I had the Italian Sausage Panini, oh so messy. Mommie wants …

A Lovely Lunch

Since it was such a nice day we took Mommie & Daddy to Sam’s Chowder House in Half Moon Bay for lunch. I had the Maine Lobster Roll, excellent. BTW these are the very first photos from my new camera although I forgot to set it to shoot RAW, doh!

Yankee Pier

Had a nice lunch with Jon today at Yankee Pier in Santana Row. I had the Scallop Risotto special, very yummy! Jon had some boring salad.

50th Part II

Six months after Mommie & Daddy’s Golden Wedding Anniversary party (I) in the Philippines, Auntie Puring hosted another party (II) in San Diego coinciding with the actual wedding date, December 27.  I got sick so I wasn’t planning on going but it was an important party so I couldn’t miss it.

Daniel’s 3rd

Today we made a trip up to Natoma Park, for Daniel’s third birthday. Tons of food, kids, cake and games to satisfy all of us. Although my G10 let me down as it was too slow to keep pace with blinding speed of those kids.  Therefore I’ve had to supplement the blog with some of …

Weekend Pass

Ah, it was a quick visit for Mommie. Today we had a leisurely Pilipino breakfast of fried eggs, rice and smoked Trout. After some last minute shopping to fill her Balikbayan Box (more on this later) we had dinner at Il Fornaio in Burlingame. Then it was off to the SFO to bid her goodbye.
