Day 52

31 August 1997 (mileage = 7.1; San Francisco) -- A - Dennis, Nancy and I went to the Cafe Muse for breakfast. I had scrambled egg, cheese, tomato and bacon croissant that was very good. Chris chose to stay at Alex's and read "Rush Limbaugh is a Big, Fat Idiot" by Al Franken. I brought him back some free post cards from the cafe. They were advertisements. Some of them are funny, though. We all got ready and took the bikes out for a spin. Dennis and Nancy loaded, Chris and I naked. Ha ha. We rode in the park down to the beach. We have realized we are on vacation with them now. They aren't riding with us (this was Chris' observation and it's true). We sat down there for a while, watching all the people on bikes and skates and sailboards and foot, etc. Then we rode back and went to Safeway. Dennis sent Nancy in alone (with me) and it took us over an hour to shop. I bought $43 and got a lot more food than Nancy did with her $48. Dennis was not so pleased with her effort. I think he should have gone in also. It's tough to decide what and how much to get and I have a lot of practice. They have gone with Alex to Nancy's friend's bar. We are doing laundry and will have burritos when we go back. That will be very yummy! We are supposed to leave tomorrow morning. Yippie! X - Though we both enjoy Alex et al, we'd like to get going. I also fried some potatoes for a snack which I gave some of to Alex's roommate, Gerald. Some guy in the park pretentiously commented that his bike was "faster" than mine. Yea, sure ...
