Geography & History: April 2005 Archives

I've spent the week in San Francisco working. Until today I hadn't had much of a chance to see anything. Today I had some free time and took a walk through China Town.

I was fascinated by the stores selling fresh meat and fish products. I am so used to packaged, indidually wrapped meat products it seems very odd to see the actual animals or large pieces of them. The variety of foods I couldn't identify was also very surprising.

If you are a squeamish about meat products you might want to stop reading now.

I warned you.

Sometime next week, I'll be sitting on a rock looking at the Pacific Ocean. It's been too long since I've sat on a beach.

Staring at my monitor for hours and hours is no substitute.
