There was a beautiful sunrise at Ruzyně
In Paris we had to walk 2km on foot
In San Francisco they drily informed us that they'd lost all our suitcases, including Tonik's stroller and car seat.
At the rental place they talked me into renting a tractor-bus instead of a minivan, saying it'd be better:-)
The hotel has a surprisingly beautiful view of a lake with seagulls.
At work everything is like before, chilled out and a nice atmosphere.
San Francisco is still beautiful and you can still burn your mug playing volleyball even in March:-)
Friends still the same, as if we hadn't seen them for 2 months. Only their kids have aged kinda weirdly:-)
Lily, that tiny little Lily, is 180cm tall. (Or will be soon)
(The photos are a bit off time-wise, because I didn't change the time zone in the camera...)

At Nenad's place, at home and in the garden. Beautiful house, awesome weather, great food, loads of fresh organic fruit. You could live here:-)
At the rental place they swapped our Tractobus for a minivan, then for another minivan (the change-oil light was on), then for yet another minivan (a flat tyre) and in the end we wound up with a Jeep Grand Cherokee. It has a pretty small trunk... Now we have to fold the stroller:-)
Hike to the top of Wind Hill, from where you can see the ocean on one side and the bay and San Francisco on the other. Gorgeous weather, beautiful nature. Snakes.
17.3.
Barbecue at Nenad's in the garden, nice and warm, the Skalas came over.
19.3.
Drive from Nenad's down to LA. A stop at 17-Mile Drive park, which is a road along the coast just below Monterrey. It's also the most expensive golf course in the USA, one round costs $650:-)
A fruit stand by the road - paradise! A 30m long stand with every kind of fresh fruit imaginable. 5 avocados for a dollar, 3.5kg of oranges for a dollar. Fresh local super tasty strawberries!
