California Visit
Well, here I am in California, with my mom. We are spending four weeks visiting my sister, Allison, and her husband, Emery, and getting to know the San Francisco East Bay Area. Luckily the weather is staying in the 70s and 80s so it's not too much of a shock from home. The nights are a different story.....Brrrrrrrr!
We visited my brother-in-law's mom, who toured us around Berkeley. We ate at a wonderful French restaurant and toured N Art Gallery, which features sculptures. It was very unique, and even had a koi and gold fish pond inside.
A few days ago, we went hiking in Kennedy Grove, a nearby park with lots of different hiking trails, right close to where my sis lives, and the first time she's been there!
My mom and I also went to friends' a BBQ who live in the same town. We met them originally in the development we live in Costa Rica. Now they live about 5 minutes from my sister. It's a small small world!!
My big fun day was visiting NIAD Art Center where adults with disabilities practice their craft. The organization not only helps artists explore and grow as artists, but they sell the artwork too! It is a fun place with lots of happy people...I plan on returning there and participating when I can!
