Ganymede's Darkroom - 2007 Photos (November to December)


15 November:


(Just camh0ring in the bathroom, don't mind me! See the dirt on my chin? That represents seven days of TRYING TO GROW FACIAL HAIR. :O)


27 November:


(This day I took my friend Roupen hiking along the coast at Año Nuevo State Reserve, a coastal reserve that sits mid-way between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz on the California coast. The day was extremely gorgeous and the sun was unseasonably hot for a late November day! We'd've sweated our butts off were it not for the persistent breezes. After some hiking we headed to the Haight in San Francisco for some shopping and great food, and there are some photos from that as well!)





My ratty old shoe:



Note the flock of black birds in the third photo:









Roupen examines the beach in the third and fourth photos:





Third photo - loose-leaf roasted green tea (焙じ茶) at Squat & Gobble in the Haight. Also visible is some leftover crepe:



Second and third photos - graffiti from Squat & Gobble's bathroom. Judging from "Eva + Zoe," lesbians eat crepes too:



San Francisco's Civic Center as seen from my car on the way home, followed by photos of Roupen and I screwing around with new swag. The new shoes are Roupen's:

28 November:

night view of Market Street in San Francisco
(After scoping out the absolutely ridic Westfield Mall on Market Street, my friend Roupen and I took two cable car rides - equaling one round trip - in San Francisco, and the pictures and videos below chronicle the trip. Whoo! Above is a picture of Market Street after we finished, while the first photo below is of a menu from the mall's yuppie-tastic food court.)

(A photo of early morning light gilding a deserted food stall in the San Francisco Airport - I was there sending Roupen home to Toronto! Sniff!)


7 December:


(Happy eighteenth birthday to my brother David! The photos above were taken at the Peace Plaza in San Francisco's Japantown, where we had his birthday dinner. The two pictures below were taken at home, where we had a private/low-key celebration with a VERY tasty, Chinese-style fruit basket cake.)
