Safe back from SF

Back from the USA again. Picked up a cold while I was there, and I have to say ... I'm glad that was the worst that happened, since the climate is so scary these days. And by "climate", I don't mean weather. Although, the weather was pretty weird too. Back home, we're seeing lows of -20 with wind-chill added on to it -- in San Francisco, it drops to around +12 at night and +25 during the day. People over there are wearing wool overcoats and toques. Me, I'm wearing short sleeves and loving it. Winter in SF is like early September here, and it doesn't get any worse. Barely rains too. Aside from the occasional earthquake, city-destroying fire, corrupt police force, nightmarish parking crisis, and constant military presence, nothing bad ever seems to happen.

Anyway, I managed visit my bro and his fiancée, to walk all over the city, drink dozens of cappuccinos and get a whole bunch of photos while I was there. Here are but a few.
