I usually hate Mondays but tomorrow will be a good one.
My daughter started her spring break so we are leaving tomorrow morning for San Francisco to go to the Museum of modern art and then we are having dinner at our favorite restaurant and staying overnight at the SF Hyatt, the room is free which is the only upside to my husband traveling all the time, free hotel rooms and free airline tickets. I can't wait.

2. hey you know what i think we may go there on Tuesday, it's closed tomorrow
but we have all day on tuesday and i'd rather do to the Deyoung instead of spending all day on pier 39.

5. No! Not Pier 39! Blech. There aren't even many sea lions around right now.
And once you're out in the park to go to the DeYoung, you have the option of taking in one or more other attractions out that way, like Strybing Arboretum.

Have fun, whatever you do.

3. My dear chimpsrsmarter!
Ah....San Francisco!

One of my all-time favorite cities!

I did the majority of my growing up in San Jose, so The City as we called it was always a major draw!

I know you'll have a blast, sweetie!

It will be chilly, so be ready......

6. we're all packed and ready to go, princess Bob is headed to my neighbors tonight
so we'll be hitting the road at 8:00am tomorrow morning. The museum probably won't be very crowded tomorrow which will be nice and out room at the hyatt is on the 16th floor with a full view of the bay.

15. haha...I plan to the extreme as well...
I guess as an event planner, it's just in the blood. But for every trip I take, I open files to store information, phone numbers, must-see's, travel guides, pictures, etc. And in my library/study, I have an entire section of travel guide books.

From cruises to Europe, I've done 'em all

Have a safe trip! :hi:

11. It's going to be a good one for me too
I'm turning in my last undergrad level paper, which is also the longest one I've ever written, and as a reward our prof is going to let us watch "Battleship Potemkin" in class :)

17. Partying is on hold
because I have a test on Wednesday. Then I can have a party because I don't have any more tests until the exam period which is over three weeks after that point. However, I do have to make a quick jaunt to Chicago which may hamper my plans for Passover, which would be unfortunate. But hey, it's mostly good.
