Since getting the new car we have been on several trips, 3000 miles on it so far. A few weeks ago we went up to San Francisco to visit Angela's brother. I learned that San Francisco is not for manual cars, I am pretty sure this is where the California stop was invented, and that parking is never available. We went on a trolley ride:

We ate a lot of bad food, starting with breakfast at:

We also went and watched the sea lions at the pier for a while.
This last weekend, on Sunday, we went to RCX at the fairgrounds in Pomona. I forgot the camera, but Angela got a toy:

An R/C helicopter, I'm not sure why, but she just had to have it. I have to admit it is fun to fly around. There were also a lot of other cool R/C displays, demos, and racing. They had a lot more than I expected for the larger 1/5 scale cars (I want one). The cars and planes each took up a building plus a few car displays and the racing outside, and then there was one guy there doing boats off in his own little pool area...what happened to the boats?? For size reference:

And finally yesterday we got new cell phones. Mine had been losing signal randomly for about a month and the screen randomly going blank for about the last 6. Angela's also started having screen issues a few days ago. We both got the LG Dare:

A good phone is $$$$$, after all the rebates they will have cost about $350, with a car charger! Ouch! A good chunk of that due to California's near 10% sales tax on the before discount price of $410 per phone. Nice things about them are 3.2 megapixel camera, bluetooth (can sync it with the Acura), looks like it has a good music player, big touch screen, and a the keyboard I need for texting.
