Awwww



So I'm not sleeping, just trying my best to hide my double chin in this photo.

My dad came to town this weekend. Niki and I were trying to decide on what do to the whole time while he was here.

After picking him up from the airport we got lunch at Bernardo's. For a while I was through with that place, but lately it's become one of my favorites.

Then we took Ira to get his first haircut which worked wonders for him later than night when we had dinner at Maaloufs. He was mesmerized by the belly dancer that came out mid-meal, and she seemed to be into him too. He kept turning his head to follow her around, and she was having a hard time not laughing while dancing. I felt bad, cuz we didn't have any cash to put into her bra. The food was amazing.

Next day we went wine tasting at Bogle. I was kind of hoping there would be more going on there....like food or something. The wine was pretty good, but not mind-blowing or anything, but what do I know? My dad only liked the sweet wines. I picked up a bottle of the zin and petite syrah reserves.

Next day we got lunch and headed to the river. I think it would be fun to go there more often, maybe during the week when it's not so crowded. You can hike just a little bit down from the main beach and have a little cove all to yourself.
