Sunday was a partly couldy day in Tiburon, CA. The surprise 90th birthday party for Mr. Pear's Aunt Hanni was held in a restaurant with a view of Angel Island and the San Francisco skyline. Here we are before the event.....
(note the green tissue package I am holding, it will be in several of these photos!)
At the party, to celebrate her life, were several photos including this one of a lovely young woman on her wedding day!!!!!
After feasting on delicious Mexican cuisine, enjoying a slide show, and toasts and tributes, we moved the party to a nearby home.
Here is Hanni reacting after opening the green tissue package....I think she really liked the socks which I knitted for her!!! Our son and his lovely bride looked on from another corner of the sofa! It was truly a fantastic day!

Glad you're back home safe and sound. It sounds like you had a wonderful time. Did you get to do any sightseeing at all?

very glad to hear of your lovely time with family and friends and better to know that you are back home safe and sound.
Tiburon, Angel Island...and the whole SF bay area is beautiful. So glad you had a great time Lila.
Yes, we did some sight-seeing both on Saturday before the Sunday event and Monday before flying home on Tuesday. I hope to get some photos of those places and make another post!
I can't believe you were so close........well close enough as I live in the SF Bay Area. You were in such as beautiful area. Sounds like a wonderful celebration and a lovely trip! what an honor for the birthday gal!
I so wish I'd known (that's what I get for being behind on blogs)- we could have met for at least a coffee. G and I could have driven out there.
Glad you had a chance to do some sightseeing as well!!
