Early mornings, after a lemon poppy seed muffin and enough American coffee to equal four European espressos (might as well have drunk it right out of the pot ;), I walked out the door to this:

regal edifice bathed in western light.



And the former Californian was appeased.

... et on a envie de s'y installer... ou bien quand même de l'autre côté du pont... ou en pleine prairie, celle qu'on a visité l'autre fois ?

I'll be there in 10 days but on the other side of the bay. A very brief visit. I hope we can see some of these places you have posted about but I'm afraid my son will keep us bouncing from one In-N-Out to the next. At 41 and 11 we have different priorities for our adventure. :)

Love you,
Debbie

I'm crazy for coffee as well. There is nothing like sitting and having a coffee and enjoying a gorgeous sunshine.
