Here's some sights and fun experienced the day before
the show. As the show is in the center of the luxury goods sections of San
Francisco, you can enjoy some wonderful food and shopping experiences.
Welcome to San Francisco :-)
The Westin St. Francis Hotel
Fine and rare clock in the lobby.
Louis Vuitton, for those who care to travel in style.
Note the golf bag displayed in the window
Armani... Fine Italian clothes.
With Italian clothes comes Italian espresso :-)
Illy beans... Darn good for commercial Italian beans
in my humble opinion.
High-end Italian linen to match your clothes and espresso.
We spend too many hours in our beds to settle for anything less.
Tiffany & Co.
Made in San Francisco... Ghirardelli chocolate. Most excellent!
Naturally you want donuts with your espresso.
Krispy Kreme, when only the very best will do.
Trolleys... Rice a Roni, the San Francisco treat!
A few girls who joined me for the evening festivities... including dancing.
Get on the floor and dance, yeah!
Getting back to reality and to keep things in perspective...
San Francisco, while catering to those with higher than usual assets and very high rent/mortgages, also
has a severe homeless problem. You could not walk more than a few blocks and not come across
a homeless person who was on the street asking for handouts.
