me: That morning was our last morning in San Fransisco. We went to eat at a Columbian place that Jim wanted to go to in the Mission called Senior Pollo. It was mainly chicken dishes. I had salad and fried bananas. They had really good fruit shakes as well. We went souvenir shopping for a while and then we went back to the house and loaded up all of our stuff. We went to Golden Gate Park where we met Hailey for her lunch break.

We drove downtown and stopped in China Town for THE BEST BUBBLE TEA I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. They used real taro in mine. I also bought some cute stripey socks from a woman who convinced me to buy two pairs instead of one. We left San Fransisco only hours before the bay bridge was closing- gasp! Then we headed on to Sacramento.

It was much warmer in Sacramento. We stopped at this place called the Tangent gallery which is sort of connected to a coffee shop called The Coffee Garden. After we met Heather at the gallery, Josh and I went to the Coffee Garden for sandwiches. We sat outside while this guy performed for only us. When we finished our sandwiches we went back to the gallery and watched Ash Reiter perform. Sadly, we missed The Heather Show and Dead Western. I heard that they were both amazing. We played a semi-acoustic set with me sitting on the floor. There was a couch made of stuffed animals that the audience sat on- cute!

After that, we went back to one of the girl’s parent’s houses. The three girls sang to us for a while. They had pretty voices. I felt so tired and sore and there was a hot tub and pool in the back- so…..
I thought that other people would come out, but no one did for a while. I sat in the hot tub by myself until finally Josh came out. We swam and relaxed for hours under the full moon. There were crickets in the bushes around us chirping. It was so beautiful. We couldn’t leave until we were too tired to stay any longer. I think we were out there for at least four hours. We then made a little bed out of blankets and towels in the office and went to sleep.
