The Princess enjoyed her first ever tour of San Francisco today, with a trip on the cable car all the way to Fishermen’s Wharf.
Tomorrow it’s Jack London Square, the Oakland Zoo, time with her cousin and other family members, and then the red-eye back to JFK.

This morning The Princess and I went to the beach. We headed out to Bodega Bay, better known as the place Hitchcock filmed The Birds. Nothing looked even remotely familiar to me but I did shoot a load of great pictures, of which this one is my current favorite.
And The Princess got to stick her toe in the Pacific.
Twin Princess Number Two and yours truly are in the heart of California’s wine country. She’s sleeping, I’m wired on Diet Coke and working on my presentation.
Today we flew in from JFK into Oakland, drove through San Francisco, over the Golden Gate Bridge and up Route One to Muir Beach. We have hills in Pound Ridge but damn, Marin County has hills.
Tomorrow I’ll be giving a workshop entitled “Beyond Blogging” as part of the New Communications Forum. This is the third year I’ll be participating and every year it seems to get better with a wider range of interesting people. It’s the perfect follow-up for SXSW, a more intimate gathering of the smart people I like to hang out with.
Pictures from day one of our journey are here.
