My day so far......


San Francisco is always filled with lovely scenes to memorize.....



scenes that make us come back for...... again and again


and each time we are here, we add one or two to our list....


and these are just half of my day so far....


it was fun

and

relaxing


...


except I really really miss my baby


and Dolce who is at home with Papi said he really really missed me too, he woke up twice last night having nightmares.... poor boy!

It is getting harder and harder to leave home, yesterday while I was packing my bag, I just don't want to leave... I used to live in my suitcase, pack and leave home so often, now...... even travel once in a while, I find it so hard that I had to tell myself, it will feel better once I am on the plane, well, it is somewhat true when I am busy doing things, but when I am not, I miss my Papillon dearly! No wonder we travel less and less these days.....

Although I am not at my craft table, I have tons of pictures on my computer that I can share, here's one.....


and I dedicate this one to all who are mourning for Paris.... one of my favorite city in the world!



feeling so so sad......

I'm so sorry that your travel is tinged with sadness, my friend! But SF is wonderful, and you will be home soon, reunited with your sweet Papi. Thanks for sharing all your beautiful photos. SF is home to me, and I do love to see it again. :)

Thanks for taking us on a tour through SF Kirsty. But it must be a small consolation to you that Dolce is now taking care of Papi.

I always wanted to visit San Francisco.

also I'm sad to hear what's happened in Paris. Reminds me of what happened in Boston not long ago. Two tragic events

Lynnda said...

It looks cold in SF! But the food looks great...now I'm kind of hungry. :)

Yes, definitely feeling sad about Paris...there are no words to properly express it. :(

Maria said...

Gorgeous photos! We were in San Fran last summer...so fun! Yes, very sad about Paris. Keeping them in thought and prayer!

Though it looks overcast and cold, the pictures are stunning and really make me jealous of your travels. I share the same problem- love the idea of traveling, actually even love the different experiences and joys of a new part of the world, but my heart always longs to be in my home, with my loved ones (the dog, a loved one very dear to the heart) and surrounded by my normal routine. I will wish you a happy time gone and quick and safe return.

Sending my prayers to Paris and those mourning losses as well...

I was also so appalled about the tragic occurrence in Paris!
