J has finished all of her exams, and in celebration we went to a tacky Polynesian thumbed bar in the basement of the Fairmont Hotel called the Tonga Room. The night prior, we meet and old friend from high school for an unusual, adults-only night at the California Academy of Sciences Museum.

Urban wheels.

Three discarded cocks.

Oysters with funny names.

Fiona’s apples in Alamo Square Park.

Time to get ready for March.
