| Day 10 Point Reyes Oyster BBQ - Celia's house |
Day 10:
We had a long drive to Point Reyes, where we had fresh fresh Oysters BBQ meal :)
On the way to Point Reyes, we stopped at Sausalito to take a few pictures of this wonderful scenic places where some romantic movies are made.
Point Reyes: It's the first time Taky and I had a Oyster BBQ. So people come here with their pots and pans and portable ovens, and they buy fresh oysters at the farm, and cook them on the spot. Can't be fresher than that!!!
The oysters come in different sizes and types. Our favorite ones are the small Japanese oysters that you eat raw with tabasco sauce... yumm yumm.... still dreaming about them :)
We drove to Celia's house and had a nice family supper. What a nice way to wrap up our trip in San Francisco. Nothing better than some family time.
Thanks to everyone in San Fran family for the wonderful time we had. Thank you for driving hours and hours with us, or to see us. Special Thanx to Kingsley and Ivy for planning the whole trip for us and for driving us around. Now we gotta move to San Francisco :)
Taky and I will definitely re-visit San Francisco. What a memorable trip!

| Day 8 Monterey - Pebble Beach - Karaok |
Day 8:
Long 2 hour drive to Monterey Beach, where we had the best crab cakes at the Sandbar & Grill resto.
We visited the must see Monterey Aquarium. This is a very nice aquarium to visit. Taky and I saw a lot of fishes and animals and we learned a lot. It's a must for kids, they have a whole playground for them.
We had the best clam chowder at Vivolo's Resto.
And we went on the 17-miles Drive on the way to Pebble Beach Golf Club. A must visit location that Taky really wanted to see. The drive was quite nice, very scenic, but breezy.
We drove back and had Japanese Tapas for supper. Very good. The highlight, especially for Taky, was the Uni fried rice.
We then went to a local chinese Karaok place called Music Tunnel... and we were singing some old songs.... lol cuz we still lived in the 80's for the chinese music :)

| Day 7 Great Mall - Foot Massage |
Day 7:
A more relaxed day having dim sum with relatives, shopping at the Great Mall of Bay Area, Foot massage and home supper.
Foot massage is so cheap here. Just $20 and you'll get a full hour of massage. Body to Toes. Why can't we get this in Montreal?
We went to a local Japanese grocery store to buy some fresh food for sushi at home. The supermarket is full of freshly packed fishes, octopus, uni, etc... Look at the price! This is such an economical way to eat fresh sushi! Why don't we have this in Montreal?
We also picked up some stinky tofu and oyster pan cake on the way home at a Taiwanese resto.
