James and I go up to the relatively new Presidio Tunnel Tops Park. https://presidio.gov/explore/attractions/presidio-tunnel-tops

It is a great place with lots of space, incredible views, tons of birds and fantastic food trucks.

James and I go to different food trucks but come back with the same thing – pork belly sandwiches.

Great place to visit as the views over the Bay are stunning and there is a good, er, vibe.

And a twinkle in me eye
I’ll be off to Okinawa in the morning.

Bad and very long trip. When I check in at SFO, Japan Airlines tell me that my connection from Narita to Okinawa has been cancelled but I have been booked onto a flight early next morning. I will have spend a night in Narita.

There is great confusion when I go to catch the flight early next morning as they can find no record of my booking.

JAL do not come out very well as they seem more concerned about working out what went wrong than giving me a ticket. I have been traveling for 2 days and am a little frazzled. The clock is ticking, the flight leaves in 30 minutes. “Please give me a ticket.” I sob. I make the flight with at least 45 seconds to spare. Too much excitement for an elderly chap like me!
