| Cheidi! xxx |
I made it through the end of the working week (FINALLY) and now it’s
time to see Charlie and Heidi for a lovely evening and a bit of a girly sleep
over before I finally start the journey back to Singapore to whether Nick (and
our poor flat) has survived having to look after himself again.

| The scary monster CalTrain |
Having made the mission
trip over to Palo Alto to meet up with Cheidi, via the BART and the scary
double-decker CalTrain, I arrived just in time for a quick drink at a bar that
provides free peanuts where you an toss the empty shells on the floor and
listen to punk rock, before heading to a lovely Italian restaurant called
Terun, that served up beautiful thin crust pizzas and salads in a covered,
heated outside garden area.
We sat for hours, talking
nonsense and drinking wine before finally heading home for tea and a good
nights sleep on a very comfortable airbed.
The following morning
there was just time for a nice homemade breakfast and a quick stop at Starbucks
before we were in the car and on our way to the airport. It was a depressingly
flying visit, but a lovely way to end a trip to our HQ that really wasn’t as
lovely as it could have been. I am very happy to be on my way home, but I’ll
miss my Americans between now and Christmas – only a couple of weeks to go!
