Troubles McSteans

This afternoon, Jason and I went down to the Long Center to take in Thrill the World , an event where people in cities around the world gather dressed as zombies to perform the Michael Jackson Thriller dance simultaneously. Really. Not knowing what to expect, we wandered up to the outdoor plaza to watch 881 zombies doing an admirably respectable job of the complicated dance. It was a little eerie, but all in all: awesome.

I finally got the pictures off of my camera from my Berkeley trip and thought I would share. I had a great time with Doug and Kristen and hope to be able to go back next year (preferably this time with Ryan in tow). Doug and Kristen in Fisherman's Wharf with a giant crab Forbes Island - the floating restaurant. Do not recommend if you are prone to seasickness. Statue on Forbes Island. It was kind of a strange place.... We went to Kristen's office where she does the lawyering.... ...and helped her with the availability board We finally made it to Alcatraz on Saturday This was about the same size as Doug's room in our old house Cheese pretzel on the return boat from Alcatraz. Kristen chose....poorly Doug's kitty, Digger If you are at all interested you can find the rest of the pictures here .
