Paella Kick

We’ve been on a Paella Kick and wanting to explore all the restaurants that serve paella, and came across Mancora, in San Mateo.




It is such an interesting restaurant (next to a hotel) and you would never notice there is a restaurant right next to it.



We were surprisingly impressed with the food. Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful.

Thank you Mancora for fulfilling our Paella Kick!

San Francisco Dining Cruises

Ahhh, there is lots in life to celebrate and one of the places to celebrate is with Hornblower https://www.hornblower.com/port/category/sf+diningcruises


We were there recently and had a wonderful time! There was all you can eat buffet, open bar, cruising around the bay with amazing view and dramatic San Francisco skyline.


Best part of all, there is dancing to the latest top 50 music.


What more can you ask?

July 4th Celebration

July 4th falls on a Saturday this year, which means each city will have their own special celebration!

On this day, you can enjoy fireworks along the waterfront, activities all day at Pier 39 and a ferry ride around the bay.
There will be fireworks in the evening and it is going to be beautiful!


If you prefer, you can also get on the cruise boat and tour around the Bay and watch beautiful fireworks.

Other popular activities on this day include biking around the city, wine tasting tours, free walking tours at SF Public Library's free walking tours in the morning or afternoon.

So many choices and it’s not going to be easy to picket one!
