We took two ferries to get to Angel Island via Tiburon

Diana had slept well and felt better this morning as we relaxed in bed a while and then took the Mini-Metro L downtown  and had breakfast in the Fishermen's Wharf Cafe. 

We then took the the two ferries via Tiburon to Angel Island, the first Bay area location discovered by the early explorers.

Back late and tired after which I successfully traded messages with Wiggly who was teasing me

It was a much better night for Diana who overcame her illness to sleep well despite everything.

I was the first to awake and slightly opened the venetian blinds to allow the daylight in as I woke her.

She was the first to use the bathroom and made some coffee at the same time. Debbie was next and I went through to the girls' room and used the Psion and modem to try and communicate with my lover but her latest message was scrambled again and so I had a long message but nothing to read.

I sat in bed with Della for a while before trying again and we cuddled and chatted. Once my turn in the bathroom came, the room and all of the towels were soaking wet but I still managed to wash my hair, shave and have a shower before joining the others.

Watched some TV cartoons with Della after but, despite my sending another message, there was no reply and so I got the family together and we set off on Mini-Muni L for downtown. The cable car out to Fisherman's Wharf where we had breakfast at the Wharf Cafe and had their good service and value again.

On to the piers where I had learnt about Angel Island as an alternative day trip. It was the first place of discovery in the bay area by the early explorers. and then it was a military installation and then an immigration and isolation hospital for Asian immigrants.

We had to take two ferries to get there, and this took us via Tiburon which is a charming settlement on the other side of the bay.

Back late and tired after which I successfully traded messages with Wiggly who was teasing me about getting used to being without me and anticipating trouble in fitting me in.
