It's crazy to know there's so many fees!!!

we took a little walk around the neighborhood today, there's a big + dog friendly park a block away from our house. 1/3 of the park is fenced and has doggie poop bags and doggie water fountain. i think the water fountain is really cute! me and deedee can drink the water at the same time ;) there's also few walking trail along and beyond the park. the trail branches off here and there so i don't know how far it goes yet. i will find that out sooner or later.

We were about to cross the bay bridge and it was backed up! But it only took us about 15 min to go through it all. The view from the bay bridge was really pretty and I took some pics but they weren't blog worthy, sorry...

Daniel's destination was to go to Kid Robot when we moved to San Fran and he finally did it today. He has a big smile on his face :) Inside of Kid Robot was kinda smaller than I imagined, but still had alot of toys for sure. Haight street reminded me of hawthorne a bit, but it was way longer and more high end shops as well. We also went to giant robot, they had lots of cute toys, apparel, and books too.

At the end of haight street, (i think it was the wall of ameba records), there was a wall full of tagging and it was really cool. There is also a pic of ed infront of the tagging for his my space profile ;)

It was a sunny day and very nice view of the golden gate bridge, and the famous lamboard street which is the winding road with expensive houses on each side, it is in alot of movies and commercials.
