Sayonara Wilmaville!


Today I am headed to the San Francisco Bay Area for two weeks. So no more Wilmington salads this month! (Is it time to vote?)

I do plan to torture you all with images of terrific Thai, Cambodian, Ethiopian, Mexican, and Japanese food that prevails there. So get ready to salivate! (I wish I could upload the heady scent of a great hole-in the-wall Laotian restaurant but photos will have to do.) And even though we lived there for more than 15 years, we rarely did any touristy stuff—like Alcatraz—but we intend to do all that on this trip. We are even planning to sleep at the Monterey Bay Aquarium, let the kids get a taste of diving the Monterey coast, and camp under the redwoods in the Santa Cruz mountains. So look forward to dorky tourist shots too.

So it's goodbye to the warm waters of the coast of Wilmington, NC and hello to the fog, frigid ocean, and food fun that is San Francisco.
