Jenny and Emma Tag Team California!

One minute, a facetious "Wanna go to Bay to Breakers?", and next thing you know, we've got bananas in California!
 
We started off on Friday night at Mas Sake in the marina for sushi with jalapenos and sake bombs to wash them down before heading back to Todd's to crash and adjust to the time zone. On the way up his ginormous hill, we also saw an elderly woman with no pants, which was definitely foreshadowing of the day to come.

I was up at the crack of California dawn (9am eastern). We headed down to San Mateo to see Gil and Anjanette's new house, check out some supposedly super BK Whoppers, and head to an NCA Reunion BBQ at MJs. Stuffed, we headed back to finish up our costumes. Jenny's friend Jassen came over to hang out for a while, and then it was time to sleep, since we had to be up at a very very ridiculously early 8am eastern time. (5am!!)

We really hope that is just Todd's bread 
We woke up and made our way to Brian's bright and early. Runners and drinkers could be seen all over. The first men in bikinis passed by, and CT was soon down to the same. Highlights of the daily view: Sesame street including a life size snuffaluffagus, evangelicals skipping church and holding warning signs, naked old men, flying tortillas, salmon going the wrong way, public urination, our globe on the electric cables, bananas and monkeys fighting, dancing Elvi on a roof, and did I mention naked old men?

The weather was gorgeous and the trip went by so fast. It was great seeing everyone, even for such a short time. I hope to do this every year! :)
