TRIP REPORT: A visit with Michael Holmes and Roni

Ginger · 08-28-2005

Okay, this one is long overdue. In late July we drove down to San Fran for a visit with Michael and Rosie Holmes (famous playainfo peeps in case you didn't already know

) and then on the way back we visited Roni and Kathy (more famous playainfo peeps, in case you didn't already know :p ).

It is long overdue because I was finishing up a new website for myself where I can post all of my reports for people to read, as I have had a lot of email requests for them. I also have a lot of new photos in a photo section, budding photographer that I am.

(taking some classes soon)

Hope you'll check it out and read it, we had a wonderful time with both friends.

Ginger did you get a chance to visit the Wharf in San Fran?
I see you took a pic of Nordstrom. It seems like all the swanky departments stores are in a 4 block radius downtown. Crazy cab dirvers there. I have some pics i'll try to shrink down and post them soon. Did you walk through the red light district

or visit China Town?

We didn't do Chinatown this time, but we did last time we stopped to visit Michael, and I have some pics of it in my photo gallery. It is a pretty neat place, that chinatown. The kids loved it!

We went to the warf last time as well, but not this time.

Market Street is something else, a shopper's dream come true! just wish I had more money to spend there...

Didn't get a chance to stop by
Niketown but next time I will. Trolley Trains get packed during the day so we opted for cab rides instead. Cool website by the way.

Loved your pictures! I think you should try the black and white effect on the picture of your daughter running from the waves and looking back...all of your pictures were gorgeous. Your trip was fantastic!

TAPPY · 08-28-2005

Your pics of San Fran are awesome...great trip report too.

Both of your children take such great photos....mine always makes a goofy face or does something silly !!!!

**SunKneeMarie** · 08-28-2005

Fantastic as usual, Ginger. I love reading your reports!

cpfstich · 08-28-2005

Chinatown is cool, although Pat isn't too fond of the restroom in one of the bar's we stopped in for a brew. :p

Ginger · 08-29-2005

Thanks for your compliments, guys!

cpfstich: couldn't have been as bad as some of the restrooms in Playa??

Awesome report and pics. Don't you love those SF toilets. I was a little scared to actually try one out though.

Okay, I'll play your silly little game. What's up with the toilets? I have been there, but it's been years!

Okay, I will admit to only scanning your report. Didn't feel well yesterday. But I did see the photo. Sorry!
