Katie’s Visit
So Katie was supposed to leave her house around 8-9 and she didn’t until 10:40 but that’s O.K. I can wait another 2-3 hours to see her… :( Anyways she’s going to get here in a wee bit and I’m just going to save this blog and finish it after the day is complete!
Well I didn’t exactly finish it right away cause I kinda passed out. I was extremely tired :p Well here’s what went down. Katie finally got to San Francisco but called me while I was in the shower to inform me that she didn’t know how to get to my school. So she waited at Stonestown and I walked down to meet here there. Once I got there we hung out for a little bit talking and deciding what we wanted to do. She suggested that we go to the Zoo so we were off! We walked to her red Volkswagen Bug and drove to the Zoo with me giving directions. Once we got to the Zoo we proceeded to wander around looking at interesting animals.
I had Katie pose in front of several different boards with pictures of animals on them so that she looked like an eagle, a butterfly, and a peacock! We saw tigers, bears, penguins, and all sorts of other animals. No elephants though. I was a little disappointed. However Katie did climb a tree and we saw the most rare of all species: The Albert. Very rare and never seen in it’s natural habitat is contained in the unique “make your own exhibit” cage. Or at least that’s what I thought it was.
After the Zoo we ended up sitting in the car for a bit deciding what to do and then we decided to get food at Stonestown. So we went to Stonestown and I got a delicious Pinini and Katie got some Panda. After that we wandered around cause Katie was looking for a jacket but she didn’t find one. Then she went looking for sunglasses but couldn’t find any that she liked. They had a rather limited selection. After that we went to See’s and she got some candy for her mom and we got some of those delicious butterscotch sucker things. Then we went back to my room to watch A Night At The Roxbury since she had never seen it and I found that to be atrocious! However we didn’t finish it in time since she had to leave before 10pm. Oh well that guarentees me more time with her next time
Oh yeah and I pinched a prairie dog!
