Lazy Weekend

It’s been a very quiet weekend. Yesterday we finally took delivery of some new furniture, which meant hanging around doing nothing for several hours waiting for them to show up! But finally, we’ve got a couch, an arm chair and some side tables in our Lounge Room. You

Belmont View

Belmont is quite hilly and there are a few places with a great view.  We headed up to one on Friday night after dinner.  From here you can see San Francisco, roughly a 30 minute drive away. It’s a litte hard to make it out on the photo, but

New cars

The two big purchases as we’ve established ourselves here have been a couple of cars.  After 3 years of driving the Mini Moke, it’s a real luxury to have a couple of reliable, modern vehicles with doors!  Not only doors, but also many of the features which seem

Moving weekend and the Winchester House

I just went back through my photo stream and it sums up what we’ve been doing pretty well, shopping for furniture.  Photo after photo of potential sofas, arm chairs, carpet colors and so forth (see what I did there – practicing my “American”). We moved into our new place on

The trolley-lator

It doesn’t take much to amuse the kids and let you know that you are somewhere new. They spent a happy half hour watching the shopping trolley-lator at the Target. You push the Trolley into the special escalator which carries it down while you hop on to the escalator

Golden gate, redwoods and shopping

Today is Karina’s birthday so we decided to head out and do some touristy things. First on the list, the Golden Gate bridge. After this, we headed to Sausilito to browse the tourist traps. The kids were very impressed by some of the artwork around. Then it was off
