Windy City

Yesterday we wanted to walk along the trail from Land's End to Pt. Lobos. When we got there though it was so freaking windy that we decided to do it some other day. Instead we went to Green Apple Books, used book store on Clement St. That store was great. It is packed with books. Every surface that is not needed for walking on it is loaded with books. We spent quite some time there (I could spend a whole day in there without getting bored. I just love books). Afterwards we walked down Clement for a bit to look at the cute little, mostly Chinese, stores in that area. After a while we found a store selling Japanese action figures and anime related merchandise. Of course I was weak and couldn't resist buying a whole set of 1 inch porcelain Totoro miniatures. It's all David's fault. He showed me the damn movie and ever since I cannot walk past Totoro merchandise.

After that we took the bus down Geary to an art supplies store where I bought some paper that I can use my new markers on. The other paper I tried didn't go well with the markers as they bled too much. I haven't tried drawing on the new paper yet but it's very smooth so I'm confident I'll like it.
