Wishing y'all a wonderful GTG! :-)

We sure wish you could be with us starrs! But next time..when you are out here again!

Thereyet: &quot;<i>Dang it janisj, I wanted to personally thank you for whacking me upside the head a couple of times when planning that London/Spain trip</i>&quot;

And I was ready too - was bringing a 2 x 4 to whack you upside the head again &gt;:)

Have a great time everyone! I have margaritas at north shore in my future Friday night (and maybe a couple of slut machines :D)

FainaA: Do you want to borrow my 2 x 4 to keep Kal in line??

Sounds like it's going to be a great get together. I'm guessing there will be seismic activity in the Bay Area if Kal shows up :)

jj,
If the 2x4 didn't work a few weeks ago how can it work now since it's worn out?

a8, It's been dead calm out here the past 2 days so if I get my E'quake Headache, I may not go. :-O
Plus, if I go there might not be enough food for me and ty! :))

starrsy, <b>&quot;y'all&quot;</b>???
My, how <i>&quot;folksy&quot;</i>. :S-

&lt;&lt;Plus, if I go there might not be enough food for me and ty! :))&gt;&gt;

Kal, it's a big kitchen!

Any tips for getting from SFO to Columbus Motor Inn? I think it is in Cow Hollow. I will take the Bart if there is one from that airport....which stop? Market? Would appreciate any details from those more experienced. I usually come from Oakland and know the Bart well from there.

Anybody has DMlove's e-mail or phone number? Please ask if she's coming!

&quot;FainaA: Do you want to borrow my 2 x 4 to keep Kal in line??&quot; - Janis, why do you even ask? Please FedUp overnight deliver!

We'll make Kal endure at least one earthquake. It's what, gin/whiskey/bubbly?

delivery - I'm losing letters :)

Would appreciate any info on parking near the restaurant, either here or e-mail me. Thanks.

No advice there, just posting to make this an even 400 posts! :D

ncounty-Columbus Motor Inn isn't in Cow Hollow although the Cow Hollow Inn and Cow Hollow Suites are owned by the same company.

Columbus Motor Inn is close to North Beach and Fisherman's Wharf. Maybe a 10 minute walk to each.

I am taking BART for the first time also but if I understand from earlier posts, you would take BART from SFO to the Embarcadero Center. From there you would have to get a bus, taxi etc to get to Fisherman's Wharf or to Columbus Motor Inn. I am not sure what time your plane gets in, but I have suggested to Cat that she and I take a taxi to Columbus Motor Inn and then walk to Fisherman's Wharf for the 2:30 cruise. This way we know we'll make it in time. If your plane is earlier, you might have time for the bus. There is a bus that stops right in front of Columbus Motor Inn-I think it's bus line #30 but don't know where you pick that bus up. I am sure Faina or others can help with that.

The 30 goes north on 4th, crosses Market, then up Stockton, then Columbus, then the Wharf. Therefore, it goes right past the Powell BART station. Don't know where it stops - perhaps in front of the Macy's mens store. I would walk from Market &amp; Stockton, north on Stockton till I see a bus stop.

Bus 30 crosses Market on 3rd, so Mongomery station is the closest, from SFO take a car in the back of the train, exit back, left. (or if from OAK exit front, to the right)
Go up to Kearny ~ 1 block, right onto Kearny.

And this is where I'm not sure, there was construction, so the stop may be moved 1 block north.

The stop is shared with #45, and the buses look similar, watch out which one to board.

(Stu, from 3rd St it goes up Sutter a couple of blocks, then on Stockton)

Paula, I am totally fine with that. If we get there quick enough, we can even crash Mona Lisa's!

Thanks, Faina - 4th is one-way - the wrong way - it goes south.

So - catch the 30 by getting off BART at Montgomery, walking west on Market till Kearny, north on Kearny till you spot a bus stop.

Cat and Paula, if you two can make it to the Mona Lisa, even if time for just a drink that would be wonderful. I will have two taxis going to Fisherman's Wharf for the boat cruise so there will be plenty of room for you two to taxi with us!

More confusion? There is also a bus #20 that makes a loop around the Embarcadero Center and goes right by the BART Embarcadero stop at Drumm and Market. That bus also goes right to the Columbus Motor Inn.
It is a daytime only bus, but fine for you on Friday during the day. In fact, it would also stop right by the Mona Lisa on Columbus, where they could hold your &quot;luggage&quot; and you could join us! For Mona Lisa, get off at Vallejo.

You want to get off the #20 or #30 at Chestnut and Columbus, pretty much right across from Columbus Motor Inn. You'll see Bimbo's (no comments please), and the Columbus Motor Inn is right next door.

We're in Room 108 if anyone is looking for us.

Neo, do you know if they have wifi? WOndering if should bring my laptop...

You'll see Bimbo's (no comments please)

KAAAAAAAAAAAAALL !!!!!!!!!!
