December 29, 2012 – Hanging with Eileen and Jim in Sausalito

Eileen and Jim are in the Bay Area for the holidays and to spend time with family especially new arrival, Eli. Part of the time they are here, they are staying in a houseboat in Sausalito. Sausalito has a large houseboat community – some houseboats are pretty forlorn while others are quite upscale.

We have a great lunch at the restaurant, Fish. The fish is fresh and good and the surroundings rustic. Long lines stretch from the counter where ordering is done. Then you grab a picnic table and enjoy.

After lunch we take a walk around the houseboat community. It is a pretty cold and raw day so we take along coffee and tea to help stay warm.

We have a great day visiting with our friends. Here are some pictures of the houseboats of Sausalito.
