On Thursday, Andy and I did some Outlet shopping in the morning, and hit
the road to meet up in Berkeley with Leslie & Chris, and we headed to a BBQ at Leslie's in-laws house. We chatted it up with Bob & Cherie and heard about all their recent fun (and no so fun) events (see txtrib.blogspot.com). After crashing at Leslie & Chris's wonderful home, we drove into the city bright and early and checked into our
amazing hotel room at Parc 55. We were upgraded to a room on the 25th floor with amazing views of the city. We ate some grub, did some shopping/people watching in Union Square, and then retreated back to the room for a quick nap before our night on the town.


We headed to Roy's (which we were told is one of Obama's fave places in the city) for appetizers, a few glasses of wine, and delicious meal- Andy had the steak and I had the absurdly
huuuuuge herb chicken (we ended up giving half of my meal to a homeless man holding a sign that read "If you can read this, I'll let you give me a dollar"). After dessert, we caught a cab and were magically whisked away to the Orpheum Theatre to see WICKED. If you haven't seen it, I would HIGHLY recommend seeing it (and
if you've heard bad reviews about it- don't listen to them..... Cindy). We went back to the hotel, had a few drinks at the bar ($$$$), went up to our room, melted into the plush bed, and were out for the count.


On Saturday, we swung by Napa to see my folks, and to see how my poor mother was dealing with her thrashed living room (remodel), grabbed a quick bite and hit the road. Which brings us to this lovely Sunday... and the fact that I want to do this entire vacation over again, one more time :). Whew! I'm exhausted.
