We were so excited to go on this vacation after such a long vacation drought. We started our trip by joining the first stop of grandmother's 90th birthday SF tour at SFO. Since we are not using our apartment, we thought it would be nice for grandmother to enjoy the lovely view of the bay bridge on her birthday.

After a quick hug/picture/car driver swap, the girls were off to enjoy the sunny SF city while we hurried in to get on our flight to Korea.
We were so lucky to get on business to enjoyed the warm nuts and champagne before the take off.

We arrived at our B&B. It was such a neat place. Julie thought it was an original traditional house... Eric pop her bubble by telling her that it is a rebuild.

The duck was so juicy... and it went really well with soju... mmmmm...
The menu said that the order is big enough for 3 people... Eric and Julie polished it off.
