A California Visit





Well Clarence, Devin and I went to San Jose for a hockey tournament in October and got to spend some much needed quality time with family. Peter and Linda were with us the whole five days, while Erik, Kayla and Emma were able to spend two days. It was so much fun being with all of you and you finally got to see Devin play hockey. We had such a good time and spent all day Friday in San Francisco. We got to eat in Chinatown, spend time on Fisherman's wharf and ride the ferry around Alcatraz with a narration of it all. I learned things I didnt know about San Fran and we got to see the places we grew up in, like Presidio and the Palace of Fine Arts, where we walked to school. It was very enjoyable and Peter was a great tour guide. It was an exhausting day but well worth all the up and down walking we did, and of course those much needed glasses of wine at the end of each day. On our last day, Peter took Clarence and I to Santa Cruz, we walked the pier and then saw some Redwood Forests. It was so nice being with my sister, I have missed you all.
