alley+Zanze's Cheesecake

Day 14 2014/05/08

昨晚，我家妹妹寫了幾張紙條，請我在家中一一找出來，內容是:

今天是什麼日子(爸爸的電腦)

天天生氣時(看KITTY盒子)

是我最愛看的書(電視)

爸爸的電視(枕頭)

媽媽愛睡覺(鬧鐘)

12點了嗎?(牙刷杯2張)

周周要刷牙

年年要有什麼天

結婚的時候，媽媽拿什麼花

找完這9張紙條，我就哭了.......

Eason is going to Muir woods today so I made him something easy to eat in the

woods: Futomaki with egg, spinach, and sausage.

今天哥哥要去Muir Woods校外教學，home媽準備壽司當中餐。

Plus drink, string cheese and water melon. Last night the kids had fried food

so they all need to drink lots of water and have lots of fruits today.

當然還有果汁、水果及他最愛的起司條。

Since we have left overs so we night as well have it for breakfast too. Plus the

tea eggs my cousin made.

今天早餐是壽司及茶葉蛋喔!



Eason loved the tea eggs but was not used to eating water melon for breakfast

so he was a bit slow.

哥哥很愛吃那茶葉蛋，不過，一早吃西瓜.....好像還真的沒有過



That's why he continued eating it in the car. 到車上繼續吃完



Here are some scenary on the way to school. I like these houses...

去學校的路上的景色....







洋蔥頭造型的房子，有趣~~



Mr.Moore教導大家寫謝卡~

一分鐘要寫出來，有沒有看到，他"頭殼抱著燒"呀!!(台語)

抓時間趕快問一下同學，我兒一定有挑過厲害的同學要坐在兩邊!



時間不多，趕快寫出來.... 媽媽我真的很挫，他不知道會寫出什麼?! 不會乾脆

給他寫中文吧?!



一定是有寫一點出來了，開始會笑了!!



Muir Woods

今天哥哥校外教學的照片，只有這麼一張.....應該是他健步如飛，老師追不上....

Ok, 3pm pick up time. This is the front desk of CAIS with Ms Barbara. She helped

chaperoan the RenAi kids a few times. Thanks!

下課囉! home媽帶著孩子一起去玩囉~~

Our first stop is the Mission year San Francisco de Asís or otherwise known as

Mission Dolores. This church is the oldest buidling in SF. Ethan's class came here

for a field trip last year when they were learning about California history. The boys

playing on the way.

今天哥哥的好友Wei一起出遊，你看，三個小男孩在一起，忍不住就皮了起來!



The church is on Dolores street which is one of the nicest street in SF with palm

trees in the middle.

這教堂前的馬路中間有一排橄欖樹。



We're here at Mission Dolores.我們到囉!!【請見Mession Dolores官網】

This is one of the smaller chapels. This church has a lots of Spanish and

Native American influrences.這是其一的小禮拜堂。



The main chapel with beautiful stained glass.

Ethan explaining the histories and stories behind the stained glass windows.

Ethan是一個很稱職的小小導遊喔!!



The main chapel alter.主禮拜堂



Another lovely mosaic picture...influenced by the Spanish culture. 馬賽克壁畫



Here they retained an old Native American hut. Let's see how many Indians are there.

home 媽說，看看有幾個印地安人住在裡面.....

哈!!!  三個!!!





Crossed the street for another view. 媽呀! 教堂前那兩棵大樹檔著，能怎麼照咧?





Next stop is Balmy alley. This is in the heart of the Mission district which is full

of Spanish speaking people with Mexican or other south American background.

這一條巷內，蘊藏許多民族及國家的繪畫風格【請見Balmy Alley的報導】

This is the boys' favourite mural. Hmm... robots...that's not surprising.

孩子們選出最喜歡的壁畫.....機器人







Once back home, Eason trains Rusty with 'Sit', 'Down', 'Roll over' commands and

reward him with cheese.

回到家後，哥哥迫不及待地與Rusty一起玩，他在訓練牠動作指令。



The boys then played a bit of Wii... 今天最開心，一回去開始玩WII





Dinner is fried rice with corn chowder.

今天的晚餐~~炒飯及玉米湯，這也是我最常做的呢!

After dinner, the boys played the game Sydon designed and programmed last summer.

吃完晚餐，洗完澡，孩子們玩BUDDY哥哥設計的的遊戲



There's a famous cheesecake shop near us which peeple come from miles

away to buy. It's a German baked cheese cake that is really soft. So soft in

fact that you can only cut with the fishing line attached on the top left corner.

舊金山有一家超有名的Cheese cake--Zanze's Cheesecake，話說，這起司

蛋糕有著"天堂般的滋味"，綿密的口感入口即化。特別的是，要切開此蛋糕，

一定不能用"家用刀子"，有看到盒子左上方的"魚線"嗎!! 對!! 只能用魚線切下

去喔!!

Looks plain but it's really good! 打開之後，你會發現蛋糕外觀看似普通，但嚐起來

的口感極佳!! 據其他部落客說，這家蛋糕每天的出品不多，老闆將每個蛋糕都視為

一個個藝術品，只有外帶喔!!



When you put a forkful in your mouth, it simply melts away. Yum. No wonder people

 drive from Scaramento (2 hrs away) for this.

這家的蛋糕好吃到許多人甘願開著很久的車，也要去買.....我就是這樣的人....



Pillow fight before sleep!   枕頭大戰開始囉!!

Oops, Eason's mom called. He needs to go confirm his packing checklist.

玩到一半....媽媽(我)line 他，電話說問他行李整理得如何等等.....掛了之後，

home媽說，先整理一下再繼續玩.....

Done. Let's play again! 整理好了! 繼續玩!





哥哥，這是你這次交換學生之旅的最後一個夜晚，你有和buddy多聊聊天嗎?

我知道，你一直是個重感情的孩子，一定會很想很想buddy的，沒關係! 明年

四月他就可以來台灣找我們喔!!
