The days run away with themselves... and so a quick overview of the joys of the Bay Area and how they have distracted me from this electronic world of journaling:
- The Seaward-
I met Captain Emerson on suggestion of a good friend. He captains the 82' schooner The Seaward out of Sausalito. They run educational programs on the ship (they being his crazy crew) as well as chartered cruises around the bay. What an incredible way to check out the area from the water. He took me out all day and I was able to get the most amazing views of Alcatraz, the Golden Gate Bridge, and all of the surrounding city areas:)
- Yoga To The People -
I found myself the most amazing yoga studio. They are located right downtown Berkeley, are donation based, and offer killer classes. It is always packed and sweaty but all the people there create a warm, inviting community to practice in.
- Red Obsession -
Daniel, Jacqueline and I painted the entire kitchen bright "obsession" red. It was a gloriously messy night of color.
- Capoeira -
Another new "friend of a friend" here, Scott, convinced me (wasn't that difficult, trust me) to try taking a Capoeira (Brazilian dance/martial art) class here. It was so much fun. The music is lively and pulses through you and the moves, so far, are very intuitive. Looks like I've been hooked... watch out!
- Brownies From Scratch -
Did you know those are locations? Apparently, they are... we wanted to make brownies (the dessert) from scratch. So I texted google (its like having the internet on your phone for free!) "Brownies from scratch" and this was the response:
Directions:
Distance: 121 mi (about 2 hours 45 mins) 25 steps.
Sorry, the requested route is too long. You may want to get it online at http://maps.google.com
So, if you are curious the steps to making brownies from scratch, apparently it requires some travel. Good luck.
The world continues to surprise and amuse me - and it's great to realize that one doesn't always have to travel far to find those lovely moments that make places special.
