Yep, it was wonderful! It was catching up with four girlfriends I've known since kindergarten and giggling through the night. It was meandering through the Ferry Building Marketplace with a rich soy cappuccino from Blue Bottle Coffee and selecting an assortment of dark chocolate bars to replenish our stash at home. It was a day trip to Napa-Sonoma for wine tasting in warm sunshine with the company of ancient redwood trees and a red tailed hawk. It was finding a cozy cafe near our hotel that became our communal kitchen. It was hours of solitude after the others had left, spent in Golden Gate Park where I roamed through the Japanese Tea Garden and said hello to the albino alligator at The California Academy of Sciences. In fortuitous happenstance I came upon a free outdoor symphony concert. I sat inside the music of Tchaikovsky and felt so splendidly alive.
