Just sitting in the Eva lounge at SFO and wondering where the week has gone. Been to alameda but only got some of the shopping so will have to order it later. Went to Quinn's Lighthouse for lunch and it was a beautiful place- sat on terrace and watched the marina go by. Mj hoping to persuade Ewan to go there one day. Also visited Fitzgerald's and had a nice lunch at a local cafe as well as seeing some amazing furniture. Annoyed did not have my camera as it was beautiful fabric. Mum got a cute piece for Marilyn to bring home.
Today got all packed and went to McCarthy's graduation party to say congrats to Kelly for graduating from St Ignatius school. They have their senior lockin tonight which is really weird as it makes the party circuit hard.
Will be nice to get home but not looking forward to the cold as it has been warm here everyday. Today was worst day as lots of fog and cold as well. Tired so hoping to sleep well on plane.

Relaxing before the party season
Had a long sleep after the flight and don't feel very rested yet. Nice breakfast at the hotel and they had a pancake making machine. Push the button and out they pop. Was yummy. Just reading the paper before the walk to Ewan's and then who knows what will happen this afternoon.
Got picked up partway so then went into town to the flower market to get leis for the kids. Had lunch at Pedro's Tavern by AT&T Park. Nice shrimp tacos and margaritas. Ewan home with Erin so nice to catch up with finally. Alex also out of bed after senior lockin which is when all the graduating clas stay the night in the school with lots of activities going on; dancing, bull riding, movies, hypnotist, etc. he said it was loads of fun and the photos are cute.
Sat; an amazing day with a huge ceremony for 309 graduates. Met up with family afterwards for photos then onto the part venue where more family. Caught up with some past friends and met some of the new family members including brides and babies. Afterwards went with Mj to whites for more drinks and socializing. A good night.
Sunday: up early to breakfast as off to the river today. Erin, Ewan and us are going to the new house so that will be nice. About two hours north so over bay bridge then Richmond bridge and to guernville. the house is very modern great living space as you walk in plus two bed/baths. Master suite is amazing and closet is almost as big as mine. More rooms downstairs and over the garage is a studio apartment. Alex thinks that this would be his. Town close so went for a drive to the coast and saw the seals on the beach. Caught up with pat and Brian at Rio Nida for drinks and also Johnny and Katie with baby Willy. Back for BBQ on deck and sipping wine then to bed. Fresh air makes me tired.
Monday: great sleep in and woke to find Ewan made the river breakfast as he now calls it. Croissant with cheese, ham, scrambles and toasted in oven. Very nice with coffee. He went off to golf with Pat and Brian so we walked into town. Nice walk 20 mins I suppose and stopped and shopped. Got my posters to hang. Ewan picked us up and took us to the golf club for lunch with boys plus Mike and Diane (Pat's
brother). back home and more relaxing on the deck before drive back into the city for a new week.
