Bay2Breakers 2007

Thursday night we sauntered to Limon's to celebrate Zach's 36th. He's also a piggy... so many of them all over. The food was rich, but fantastic. More pictures at flickr. Friday night Zach, Sid & Gina came over to watch our Suns lose their series. Ugh, the two teams I wanted to win are out.

Saturday AG and I spent a good deal running around, renting a truck - he and Zach picked up desk from work. Then AG and I rearranged the office until midnight before we finally collapsed in front of the TV in a vegative state... we treated ourselves to a pint of Karamel Sutra...
The next morning, we got up - dressed - and headed out to Bay2Breakers. Since the race had already started, we drove to upper Haight and parked before merging with the party goers in the Park for the next 3 miles.

The revelry was in high gear. The closer to the end of the race we got, the more bodies we saw sprawled on the lawns. So many beautiful costumes and people, everyone was in such high spirits. The weather was warm and gorgeous and we found some very cute pink flamingo girls and Elvis' to take pictures with.
We finally stopped at 30th and Kennedy for the House of Lotus party. They had a great sound system blasting and Margo/Maddick found us there. We all hung out in the sun listening to great music and enjoying the entourage of people and costumes parade by. The energy was drunk but very fun and we got a lot of support (especially from men) for the belly.

A couple of people thought my belly was fake. By the time we got home AG was sunburnt and didn't know it. Hitched a ride from Margo back to upper Haight to dine at our fav Thai restaurant Best of Thai before heading home to pick up the truck and drive to Alameda for baby stuff. From Helena and Wunder, we retrieved a crib, changing table and bag of clothes. I'm excited to paint the crib next weekend - I'm thinking Red of course. Maybe we will motivate and rearrange the bedroom too.
