It's 44 degrees outside + inside but at least my hat matches the sheets?

Zines in Rancho Viejo
We have spent the week far away from any sort of cell signal in a community of 150 people, tucked into a biosphere reserve. Talk about amazing! We came to play theater games, make zines, learn about the conservation efforts happening here and build community.
The magic of quickly folding zines never ceases to amaze me and they were hooked right away. Soccer balls, smiles, blank paper, and markers were the right things to pack.
We made all sorts of zines, including ones to invite families to the school on Friday to show them the little play we made. At the end, they asked to take a picture all together. There were a lot of moving pieces and most of the kids scurried away, so here is what we got!
Ferry to SF + Wandering Mission
This morning we took the Alameda ferry across the bay to visit San Francisco proper. We walked around near the ferry as a group. A friend from GR happened to be in the Mission neighborhood so when the group headed to a mall to evade rain, I headed off to see my friend Tory.
We basically wandered around from yummy spot to more deliciousness with a kind guide of a friend who knows food. MmmmTartine had yummy things that I could eat! And to think my vanity almost kept me from asking.
Final stop before the train, all the good smells meet us at the sidewalk. And I learned a new word: loroco = squash blossom. Pupusas topped with curtido whilst a man serenades from the doorway.
Hopped back on the BART train and headed to an evening in Berkeley.
Friendliest airline ever.
Friendliest airline ever. Thanks Alaskan Airlines. Kids in the cockpit was certainly memorable for them.
TBT to 2003
Ry’s Dad sent this picture to us today! It was from his Birthday in 2003. A sweet diner post-epic-honeymoon trip for three. Looking forward to seeing these faces in just a few days!
