First Weekend

After dropping off Quinn on his third day, we stopped for a donut at Winchell's and a quick stop at the playground on Harbor drive on a little beach. It was too cold and windy, but Hazel managed to have some fun. For lunch, we walked to a tiny taco shop to get a take out (they have no seating area) in the middle of high rises nearby our place (it was very yummy & cheap!). I want to post the picture of her walking because they have this lavender tree all over and I thought it's pretty (I don't know the name of it).











On Thursday, daddy found a ride now to and from work (Yea!). It gives us more time in the morning to lounge around and do chores. We visited the park in Ocean Beach (not sure if it's a safe neighborhood) and no picture. This is the park that we tried to go on Monday and got lost. And in the afternoon after daddy got home, we all went to check out Seaport Village which is nearby our place. We like it....Hazel loves the super fast merry-go-round (me: got dizzy).

Friday is the first Friday that daddy got a day off. His work hours are pretty cool....9 hr work day and getting every other Friday off. I love it, and he'll have this also when he goes to work for them permanently. So, we used this day to explore the downtown area by feet. We checked out the mall, which I don't seem to like because it's outdoor and it seems dirty to me (I always think of malls with air condition). For lunch, we got variety of food at Ai, pretty good and cheap place to eat. I love their crunchy roll (as good as the one at the fancy place and it's only $4.95). For dinner, we tried Anthony's Fishette (it's the cheap outdoor version of their fancy one) and I love my plate -- calamari with mac & crab salad.


















Saturday, we checked out the Greek Festival they had. Pretty good gyros and their donuts are so yummy (it's covered with honey, nuts and cinnamon). We also got their greek fries covered with feta cheese and some baklava. Hazel wanted to stop by at the park before we headed home of course, and mommy wanted a cold & sweet drink so we stopped at the Ghirardelli soda shop and got us some yummy vanilla milk shakes.

We're still learning the area and finding the right spots, missing our Bellevue a little, but we're also enjoying the ride.
