I dropped the kids off at school and remembered I wanted to take back some books Lucia and I had borrowed from the library. When I was done I thought it might be nice to ride the 38 all the way out to the water and walk back through Golden Gate Park. Sometime during the bus ride I started thinking about just walking east and keep walking until I reached the Bay. And that’s what I did.
It actually got tough at the end. I was running out of energy and Amber had texted me mid-walk if I could pick the kids up from school, which meant my absolute finish time had to be before 1:45pm. Luckily I made it by 1:48 and managed to flag down a cab.
It turned out I had had that cab driver before and, as is my way, I had asked him many questions about his life the last time I was in his car and I could repeat them back to him. He did admit he tells everyone he has 7 kids when in fact he actually only has 2. He claims it gets him bigger tips.
Oh and then we went out trick-or-treating which was more walking! It was fun though. Just the right amount.
