Epic Walkabout

There is no better way to kick off your morning than to enjoy an awesome, hipster made cup of coffee. I was not meeting up with the crew until later (some had to hang back to get some work done) so I went on a walk about of their new 'hood.

For a couple of days I have been hearing about a beloved lunch spot Bacon Bacon where, you guessed it, everything is made out of bacon.  You could smell the place from around the corner and I can tell you that this place did not disappoint.  Apparently they also have a food truck, but last Thanksgiving the engine caught on fire and pretty much burned to a crisp (pun DEFINITELY intended).  Thankfully they are working on getting the new one up and running.

With all of the adults working today I decided to head out for a walk which turned out to be quite the tour of the city.  The quick and dirty version:

A walk through the Mission

Checked out some street art

Headed over to Golden Gate Park where I hopped on a swing

Hitched a ride to the beach

After dinner we headed over to the magical Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar (another place I have heard rumors about).  The Fairmont Hotel converted their indoor swimming pool into a tiki bar and lounge.  There is a band which is floated out into said pool, they play their set and are then "brought back to shore".  To make things even better, a rain storm goes off in the pool once the band is on dry land.

And perhaps the best part are the drinks (which are STRONG)!
I will say the plastic coconut is WAY lame compared to the ginormous pineapple you get.
