Saturday we went to a comedy show - Jamie Kennedy - He's on The Ghost Whisperer with Jennifer Love Hewitt. I'm not sure what it says when the opener had a better gig than Jamie did and that Jennifer got a louder welcome than Jamie... It was great. Although Jamie had a rough start, he warmed up through his act and it was actually quite funny! I almost peed my pants during a couple of jokes.
On Sunday we went to the Zoo! It was Baby Bonanza... Apparently they had numerous babies born in the past few months, but they must have been sleeping because we did not see very many babies. Actually, most of the animals must have been sleeping because we did not see very many of them. Either that, or they were shy... Yeah, I think I like that explanation a lot better.
But all in all, the animals we did see were SUPER CUTE!!! We saw giraffs, zebras, rhinos, teddy bears, polar bear, tigers, a lion, and.... MONKEYS!!! The best part I must say so myself. There was a cute chimpanzee roaming around and playing in his area... There was a gorilla, and apparently a baby gorilla was born in December, but no one wanted to play outside. They were all inside their hut and no matter how long Joe and I waited, no one came out to say hi. There were New World Monkeys (little monkeys with long tails) and they were so cute too! These ones were younger and more playful and showing off for everyone. Very curious little creatures... Made me want to take one home for a pet - Move over Mooz!
Joe made me go into the Insect Zoo - CREEPY! I don't, I repeat, I don't like insects AT ALL. Plus, it smelled funny in there.
Oh! And there were penguins and flamingos and meerkats and leemurs and... and... and... I get so excited thinking about all the monkeys I saw!
We walked for four hours and didn't even see all of the animals! What a day...
I took some pictures with my iPhone - whose camera sucks by the way... Here they are (and you'll see why I say the phone camera sucks)...
Joe was not happy about this one - What a sport...
The iPhone's camera may suck, but the navigation system is AWESOME! We didn't get lost once in the city and Joe found the satelite function that moves as you move! Oh my gosh... I can't say enough about this function on my phone.
That night we went to Joe's Crab Shack - I HAVE TO SAY THIS IN CAPITAL LETTERS... I LOVE CRAB and all SEAFOOD... What a fun experience. The waitresses dance and the atmosphere was happy and very welcoming. The food was delicious and the view of our table was the best. It looked out into the Fisherman's Wharf area. Nothing beats people watching in San Francisco...
So our weekend in San Francisco was very relaxing and fun! I'm so glad we can travel together - next time will be a major vacation for the both of us... I can't wait to see what our next adventure has in store for us!
3 Monkey for your thoughts...:

That picture of Joe is pretty funny. Made me chuckle. Glad you had a fun time in San Fran. How is everything going with you guys?
Doug and I love San Fran as well. Wouldn't want to live there, but there seems to be a lot of fun things to do. Glad you got your monkey fix in!
Oh, and I love crab too! Especially Alaskan King Crab. It's well worth the expense!!!
