Walkin' with my baby down by the San Francisco Bay

So that snow I mentioned was threatening on the Saturday that we left New York? It came early - 11 am early. And it was beautiful.

Beautiful and a pain in the arse when our flight to San Francisco was cancelled and we couldn't get onto another one for 28 hours.

So we spent the night in a grotty airport hotel, and the next day in Brooklyn watching the snow melt on a very sunny, very cold October day. Hang on - snow in October?!

We arrived in San Francisco at midnight last night. We only have 3 and a bit days here now and we missed seeing a gig in Berkeley with my friend Phil, but we are going to make the most of the days we have here. We were last here 8 years ago and there is a lot to catch up on.

For now we have the interesting situation of staying in the Castro on Halloween. The boys and girls really know how to do a good costume in this neck of the woods.
