Coco-Nuts

It figures. Our house is surrounded by 43 coconut palm trees, yet I can't remember the last time I ate fresh coconut. It took a five hour flight to San Francisco for me to indulge in fresh coconut at the Osha Thai restaurant next to our hotel.

We have stopped for a complete night of sleep on our way to Istanbul. The next flight is 11 hours long followed by another of 4 hours; I am really glad we took this rest break. Not a bad view either. The Bay Bridge is in clear view from our room.
