A better word may be "quaint".
So today, I hopped on a ferry and braved the elements, the smackings from the sea, the gusting winds and the pending sea sickness to make my merry little way across the bay to what must rate as the LEAST saucy city I have ever been to.
"But why Sausalito?" I hear you whine. Well, truth be told, my cousin (let's call her "D"), used to work as a waitress at the Bridgeway Cafe in the pic. Okay, so that was like 15 years ago, but in her own words (not mine), she "was their worst waitress but their best paid". Now how's that for a reference?!
So, family ties being what they are, I headed over and sat in this small cafe, imagining my tall, blonde cousin running around, taking orders. Well, once again, truth be told, knowing D, it was more a case of her sitting with the customers, having a chat, and shouting orders to the kitchen from where she was seated. Oh D! You're one of a kind.
Anyway, for those of you who haven't been to Sausalito, go! The little shops, the blossoming trees (I wonder if the residents do that just to attract tourists), and amazing views of San Francisco from across the bay are worth the arduous trek across the bouncing waves and squawking gulls.
D, this one is for you cuzzie.
