6/07 - Mario and the super skinny building

This is the famous Flatiron Building.  Isn’t it cute?

We saw a really groovy bus on the way to lunch.  The driver said it was a Magic Bus.  Dude.

6/06 - Miss Kitty wants to wave to President Obama

Look who “Miss Kitty” saw on BART today – herself on a shopping bag!  Miss Kitty says hello, big smile.

There were crowds gathered in the street as we walked back from lunch, waiting to see President Obama drive by on his way to lunch.  We would have stayed to watch too, but we had a meeting.

6/05 - Beluga whale behind glass

We saw these windows waiting to be installed and Beluga pretended she was in a fishbowl. Silly Beluga.  Everyone knows you can’t fit a whale in a fishbowl!

Beluga was feeling a bit thirsty, so she took a quick dip in this splashy fountain.  Ahhhhh.

6/04 - Petie the Sea Lion flippers out

This was the view of the rain clouds from the BART platform this morning. I missed having you guys on the train with me today.

How is a sea lion supposed to take the stairs?  Come on, BART!

6/03 - Weekend fun: Aquarium edition

This weekend was one of those big weekends, where things feel epic and you are tired at the end of it, but happy nonetheless.  Saturday was a day of challenges, but we did have this cute moment where the twins took their babies in the car.

Sunday was a most excellent adventure to the Aquarium of the Bay.  BART was on time.

We arrived at Pier 39.

And then we saw all kinds of wonderful creatures from our very own Bay.

We had lunch with a view of sea lions.

Many thanks to David and Joanne for their mad twin-wrangling skillz!

6/01 - Old Yeller wants to ride the rails

Can you find the number 54 on this cable car?

And then it was a day with lots going on...  Yay weekend!

5/31 - Mario tries to catch a flying pizza

Looks like there’s a new Madagascar penguin movie coming out…  It looks silly!

The weather was so nice today, Mario and I decided to take a quick stroll toward North Beach.  He saw this pepperoni pizza and tried to catch it, but the flying baby was too fast.

Mario's other lunch finds:
This funny guy was giving a tour of the neighborhood to some people.  I’m not sure why he was wearing that outfit…

 We found a really cute little alley, lined with cute old brick buildings.  Mario liked the red and green bricks on this one.

5/30 - Blue Yoshi meets lots of new friends

Unfortunately, my phone is still refusing to send or receive information today, so I’ll have to show you the pictures at home again.  Grrr.  Blue Yoshi met these new friends today:

Suzanne F and her two little doggies, Yogi and the other one whose name I can't remember.

My friend Meredith from college, who looks exactly the same as she did then.  (How does she do it?!)

Some kind of Curious George guy.

Meanwhile, at home, Lil' Gal lost tooth #6.  She is now ahead of Lil' Guy!  Woooo!

 Popsicle break!

5/29 - Koopa Troopa is sad that Mommy's phone will not send pictures today

I will have to show you the pictures on the phone when I get home.  :(

Here is Koopa Troopa with a nice SF postcard featuring the Bay Bridge (and an orange? Or is that an Angry Bird?).

Koopa Troopa was feeling shy without his shell, so I took him to Shell Corner (who knew?), where he tried on a new one. Doesn't that look nice?

5/28 - Weekend fun - Wheels edition

Lil' Gal decorated the nectarine tree for Memorial Day.

We made a Tinkertoy robot bird and found Goomba in the Tinkertoy bin.

We made grilled cheese sandwiches.

We learned to ride our bikes without training wheels!  And I got to chase the kids on my new skate wheels.

Also, we had an impromptu barbecue and Lil' Gal has more "wobbly teeth."  Hope you had a nice Memorial Day weekend, too!
