Mike and I went to the city yesterday for my birthday, and we had lots of fun. When we got into the city via BART we encountered some unanticipated rain showers so we ducked into the Ferry Building for a bathroom break and some Blue Bottle Coffee. By the time we left the Ferry Building, the rain had stopped, and we made our way down to the pier where the Alcatraz tours depart. The boat...
Christina and I went to see The Social Network, and I would give it a 7 out of 10. As a geek, the subject matter appealed to my interests, but you might be offended by how geeks are portrayed.

For Tyler's birthday Christina's parents arranged for a San Ramon fire station tour for this morning. As you can see from the pictures and the videos he absolutely loved it but I don't know if the adults or Tyler had more fun. You don't realize how complex fire trucks are until you really get up close to them, or in our case we were lucky enough to sit inside of it.
