After a long day at the Park, it's so relaxing to sit down in a comfy lounger and order your Mai Tai. The perfect place for doing so is at Tangaroa Terrace inside the Disneyland Hotel complex.

Projects and musings from an artist / engineer / surfer / motorcyclist.
When it's raining outside, you can't ride the motorbike or surf, it's always fun to catch up on sketching at the local art museum. It was a nice indoor day at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco:

In the outer Sunset District of San Francisco, you can find a classic Japanese dining experience at Noriega Teriyaki House. As you enter, a large display of Japanese maple and miniature temples greet you along with the host.

On the last days of 2023, while waiting for some adventurous shoppers, I stopped into Equator Coffees on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles. I found a peaceful cafe, modesty decorated, with a very good mocha. What was striking to me was how the bright orange-red chairs and red coffee bags on display popped through the dark brown (almost black) cabinetry.

For Christmas Eve, we decided to venture out to San Francisco and add to the festivities of this great City. There are many stories of the fall of SF, but one restaurant at the end of Market Street has survived and thrived for decades: One Market!

One Market was decked out in Christmas attire and the holiday menu was delicious.
Happy New Year everyone!

We found Comal through our favorite show, "Check Please, Bay Area," and it was great. The Mexican restaurant is a mix of classic food but in a very modern setting. The main dining room faces a courtyard garden that is stunning:
