Helpful tips for visitors

Dick's sisters just left this morning to fly back to North Carolina. We had such a wonderful visit with them while they were here!

We did all kinds of fun things: We did a ton of shopping in Union Square, ate a lot of yummy food (Ton Kiang (dim sum), House of Prime Rib, and Hyde Street Bistro to name a few), and went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium to see the White Shark". My parents hosted a (mostly family) Engagement Luncheon for us, and timed it with Dick's sister's visit so that they'd have a chance to meet the whole Chow Clan.

Here's a helpful shopping tip for out-of-town guests: Did you know that Macy's has a Visitor's Center on the 6th floor of the Union Square store? If you are from out of the Bay Area, you can go to the center, present them with a hotel key, or an out-of-state driver's license, and you'll get a visitor's card good for 12% off any purchase! Who knew? Such a great deal!
