Is it culture shock to go back?
Quote:
Actually, I was just there, for the 2nd time in 3 years, just yesterday. I'd gone down there to ONLY just to see the San Francisco International Auto Show at Moscone Center, and just for that alone; the idea was to get in and out of there in one afternoon, and see nothing else but the car show.. I had not been to the big motor show for many years. The only other time I was even IN San Francisco in the last three years, was this past September for a day, when I met cmac2012 and Dee8go (on his vacation) there at the Ritz Carlton on Stockton Street near Chinatown, and we went sightseeing all over SF in the city in my 560SEC. We had dinner at Tommy's Joynt (the old Hofbrau shown in this video at 1:09 - 1:12.) because the Peruvian Restaurant we were going to try, just across the street on Van Ness, closed their doors in our faces on us because we were late. It was lots of fun playing tour guide to such an appreciative audience. I can tell you this: it is sooooooo much different to go back to SF as a visitor, after being a resident, especially if you return for a short visit after having lived, walked, gone to church and worked there for about 25 years or so. I was also in Berkeley earlier that same day, (just yesterday) to see a play ("After the Earthquake") at the Berkeley Rep theatre, and aside from the great restaurants, bookstores, galleries and art studios, Berkeley is quite a culture shock after coming from some place where it is mostly white people, "culture/entertainment" takes the guise of a bunch of Harley Davidson motorcycles outside the downtown bar and a "good restaurant" is "family-style" whitebread American fare. Well, maybe I'd stayed at the fair too long, who could say?

My favorite band of days gone by, coupled with two female vocalists who can't be beat.
