Happy Birthday Di!

What a fabulous place San Francisco is! The shopping, the food, the architecture, the people! The hills are very, very steep and great for walking (down that is - and not in high heels). The weather changes every 3 days they say. Friday was hot, Saturday was cold, Sunday is raining. Hopefully sunny again on Monday. Had a wonderful Italian meal on Friday night at a family run restaurant on Lombard Street. The dollar is at about 93 at the moment, so the costs are evening out. Ross - Dress for Less in SF is 4 stories! More shoes for Wayne!

And yet I still came out with nothing! I think I need a shopping partner - another girl. Wayne and Ash are doing well though. They even had Prada and Jimmy Choo shoes for sale there - for about $400 a pair. Michael Kors bags were going for less than $200.
