i went photo crazy

My friend and I visited the Marina this past Saturday. It was pretty outside. Wintery, but pretty. Like always, it was nice to get out of the mission. Besides the pricey shopping the Marina offered up a few surprises this particular Saturday. It was the first weekend in December, so holiday festivities were abound. Some unucky fellow was walking around in an enormous Jelly Belly outfit handing our free candy. There was a pony giving children rides. There was free popcorn. Pirate holiday clowns face painting. There was even an ice princess. And, when I thought it couldn't get any better, there was some old guy pushing around what looked like a toy shopping cart (because it was all plastic), with a 3 foot tall toy santa in the basket. He walked into a radio shack. What? Im sure these events really aren't much for the reader, but in a day that was just supposed to be a nice fresh air day out of the Mission, turned into a very unexpected but pleasant day of events.

I guess the randomness was also supported by the fact that I ran into three different people that afternoon that I knew. Three people that are in complete separate circles, we just happened to be at the right places at the right time. It was cool.
