Liz wants to wonder around Buena Vista Park. On the way back we walk past Bobby McFerrin's and Danny Glover's houses.

Here we are leaving 209 Central Avenue and heading off to Golden Gate Park!


Twin Peaks - what a great idea for a TV show... nice view too.

The Golden Gate Bridge is red - see...


The parlor is comfy.

Then the big donors get a guided tour of the San Francisco zoo by that eminent celebrity Jane Tollini the penguin keeper!

Most of the critters are pretty self explanatory but this "bird" requires warnings! This is a casawary. Now you say, "What's so special about the casawary?" "STAY BACK! THATS ONE MEAN FOUL BEHIND THAT FENCE! CAPABLE OF EVISERATING YOU IN A SINGLE BOUND! REMEMBER, STAY BACK!"

A good bit of the tour revolves around the penguins, arguably one of the BEST stops! Liz gets to greet and feed the birds. Are they lovable or what?

Penguin spotting - calming, relaxing, nap timing - for the penguins.


And now we go behind the scenes where the riff-raff can only dream of. The highlight - watching the recovering bald eagle fly!




One has to visit The Park and the tulips are in bloom near the wind mills - eewww - pretty!


We visit the Guns of Navaronne location - the gun emplacements at the Marin headlands - kewl - long drop... hunf, hurf, hrf, OUCH!, ah...
