Our Weekend with Sara Strube

This past weekend we had another visitor: Cheyenne's cousin, Sara Strube. 

Thursday evening, we went to San Mateo's Central Park to grab some dinner and listen to "Music in the Park". 

Friday, both Cheyenne and I had to work so Sara toured our adorable little town by herself and then left to go to a party in the city with an old friend. 

On Saturday, the girls took a scenic drive to Half Moon Bay to window shop and hang out on the beach. Upon returning to San Mateo, they enjoyed take-out Chinese, wine, and a movie. As for myself, I was out with my hockey buddy, Andrew, watching Step Brothers and eating some delicious San Jose pizza! 
Sunday, we all drove down to Gilroy to meet Cecelia for the world-famous Gilroy Garlic Festival. We ate garlic flavored EVERYTHING -- including ice cream. We even watched a garlic food competition which imitated the TV show Iron Chef. One of the contestants was San Francisco's own Ryan Scott, who was on Bravo's Top Chef -- he was the fan favorite. On our way home we hit up the Gilroy Outlet Mall. 


Monday, we drove through our foggy city and over the bridge to Muir Woods where we enjoyed a nice walk. We then went to Ghirardelli Square, Fisherman's Wharf, and China town. After a steak dinner, the girls went out to see the "Dark Knight". 

Then, early Tuesday morning Cheyenne dropped Sara off at the airport and we said goodbye to another visitor.

Perhaps I should make some reservations for two years from now when I actually have a life again to travel. Wait? What was that? In two years you will be living in Wisconsin- up the road from ME?! Cancel those reservations, please. :o)
