On the road again








Yes I'm back on the move again. Yesterday's long journey from Glasgow to San Francisco worked out exactly according to plan, but it was via Edinburgh and JFK, and so added up to a pretty long day. I'm staying with Erica and John for a couple of days, and they have been fantastic in welcoming me to their part of the world and in providing a whistle-stop tour today. Highlight was of course our lunch at the Stinking Rose. This is a specialist garlic restaurant, and as soon as I heard about it I knew I had to pay a visit! My excellent lunch consisted of garlic,onion and potato soup (good stuff, but very different from the Nepalese stuff), roast chicken and potatoes with 40 cloves of garlic (no kidding) and then of course the garlic ice-cream (again no kidding!).
My pictures are of the Stinking Rose, me with the soup, Erica with the ice-cream, and some views of SF on what has been a beautiful sunny day. Perfick!
