The Adventures of Maxine & Mabel

Maxine & Mabel take on SFO to Celebrate 20 Years!
First we took a bus to Vancouver, Canada and then a Princess Cruise to San Francisco and then spent a few days in the City. Our tour group consisted mainly of retired folks. We were the youngest on the bus of 53 people, we figured the average age was 65-70. By the end of the trip (who am I kidding, after the first 5 minutes) the geriatric generation was completely on my nerves! It was an exercise in patience....which I don't have!
Hanging out with Terri is always fun. I forget how easy our friendship is and how we can have an entire conversation with just a look or three little words. I guess that comes after 20 years of friendship! Some of our experiences included massages on the ship, morning cocktails (and afternoon, and evening!), lots of food, interesting art, a trip on the Napa Valley Wine Train, sightseeing, shopping on the Wharf and Union Square and lots and lots of laughter. During our trip, we traveled on several modes of transportation: Bus, Ship, Train, Cable Car, Taxi, and Airplane. We packed a lot into 5 days and 4 nights!
Can't wait to experience our "anniversary" trip when we celebrate 40 years of friendship. Oh no....we'll be the geriatric generation then! Perish the thought!!!!
