Fisherman's Wharf

Asuka and I took a nice long walk to Fisherman's Wharf on the weekend. It's a great place to go for lunch and enjoy a sunny day. The restaurant area on the wharf has expanded since last year, and there is now another small restaurant, an ice cream boat, and a few of the house boats are small art shops. It certainly is turning into a hot little tourist place.

There was almost one hundred people there when we went on Saturday afternoon, so we didn't want to wait in line for food. Instead we went to The Superior which is right around the corner. This was my first time there, and it was great! It's a funky little artsy café. They have lots of live jazzy music throughout the week, interesting decorations and a tasty brunch menu on weekends. They also have a nicely hidden garden terrace where you can eat outside. I hope to return there sometime soon to enjoy an evening drink and some jazz.

I love living downtown just so I can easily walk to places like that. The Fisherman's Wharf area is the perfect distance from our condo too. Saturday turned out great and we enjoyed the exercise, view, weather and food. I could do without the sunburn on the back of my neck though. I need to start wearing sun block more often.

The photos above were taken in the order they appear on our walk to the wharf. I've done this walk a few times, and taken photos of it before. This time I tried to get some shots of different views than usual. Anyways, you can get an idea of our day if you walk yourself through the photos.

This weekend is VEMF and I'm really excited. There are a couple DJ workshops I'm keen on seeing, and lots of good music to enjoy. It helps that I have next week off work too, so I can enjoy a week of fun and relaxation. I've got lots of work to finish before I leave on Friday though. So this week is crunch time!
