On Saturday in San Francisco, we woke up and got ready to leave. If you can believe it, all 4 of us girls were out of Stacey's apartment by 9:30 am. AMAZING!!! Stacey took us to The Fog City Diner, it was amazing!!! Geneva and I had the yummies spinach, mushroom, bacon omlette. For those of you that have seen 'So I Married an Ax Murderer' the diner is featured in the movie. I will say that parking on San Francisco is outrageous expensive!!! I think it was a quarter for every 5 minutes at a meter. Ouch!
After breakfast we decided to head over to Fisherman's Warf. Chad wanted me to get him a Hard Rock Cafe t-shirt and Ralf really wanted a sourdough bread turtle. We headed to Boudin's to get the turtle and what a neat place it was! They had an alligator (maybe crocodile) made entirely out of sourdough bread. It was quite amazing! We wandered back to the warf and just wandered. There are so many neat and fun things to look at! I got the kids some t-shirts and some other stuff. Fisherman's Warf is such a neat place! We went there in high school for a choir trip, after being there as an adult, what were they thinking taking all of us high schoolers there!
Since the show was at 2, we decided to head towards the theatre around 1. Unfortunatly, there was a marathon to be run in San Francisco on Sunday, Saturday was the "check in" day so there was NO parking anywhere near the theatre! We ended up about 8 blocks away. Not too bad really, but just getting over a horrible cold and all the hills in San Fran, it was quite the trek! We finally made it to the theatre. It was beautiful! We had awesome seats! I am a big fan of balcony seating. That way you can see the whole stage!
The show was AMAZING of course. Anthony Rapp was just as good as he is on the CD. I was a little disappointed with Adam Pascal, he just didn't seem as good for some reason. The whole show was just awesome though! I have always been a huge fan of Anthony Rapp and to see it live was amazing, but after the show was even better!
As we were leaving the show, Geneva decided we should go out the side door. It basically took us down the fire escape! As we got to the bottom, there was a security guard saying that the "meet and greet" line was to the left. We decided what the heck, the worst they can do is kick us out! The only cast member to come out was ANTHONY RAPP!! It was so cool. We got his autograph and Geneva even talk to him a little bit about Hawaii. I felt like a kid on Christmas. It was so amazing!
After all that excitement, we went to an irish bar and had a drink, then decided to head back to the warf for dinner. We went back to Boudin's and had some really amazing food! I got a sourdough breadbowl with clam chowder that was just amazing!!! We had garlic fries as an appetizer. Let me tell you, if I could make those at home, I would make them all the time. They were so good!
We were all so stuffed and decided to wander around Fisherman's Warf a little bit more (seeing a pattern here?) Jodi decided to get a crepe, it looked really good, but I just couldn't find any room for a bite! As we were sitting eating, we were talking about Alliance. I guess there was a character on 'Supernatural' that said that the devil actually came from Alliance, NE. The big body guard type looking guy sitting behind us commented that we were having the weirdest conversation he had ever heard 4 girls have!
We left the warf and drove back towards Stacey's apartment. She drove us though campus where she works. Stanford is a very pretty campus, even at 11 o'clock at night! We headed home and crashed for the evening!
