We Are Big Kids Now

After nearly a year and half apart, Kat and I got to hang out for part of the day. We caught up on each other's lives while eating Vietnamese food on Irving. We then went to Moraga and 16th Ave. to walk all the way up the stairs. We tried to the count the number of steps but lost count after the 4th set. It was super windy at the top, but the view of the city was gorgeous. Everytime Kat yelled at the wind, it got stronger, so we headed down the other side of the hill to 12th Ave. We grabbed some Jamba Juice on the way to the playground. It's funny because there's a sign at the playground saying that adults weren't allowed unless accompanied by kids. It's ok, we're big kids trapped in adult bodies XD. We road the sand slide twice, went on the rope pyramid (and watch four and five year olds climb up higher than us) and played on the swings. We then road the merrie-go-round. The lady that collected the admission fee asked if Kat was 12 (the ticket's cheaper), but Kat said no. I road on a cat while Kat sat on a horse. It was so funny because we pretended it was a race like we did when we were little (my cat totally beat her horse). We both got somewhat high and dizzy off the ride. Kat wanted to go the Japanese Tea Gardens because she's never been there before. Unfortunately, it was only free from 9-10am today. In the garden, we walked in circle and climbed weird bridges while taking in the serene environment. After trying to kill squirrels and Kat spinning around a bunch of times to see which direction we should walk, we departed onto our separate buses after reaching Lincoln Blvd. It was an awesome day. I've known Katherine since kindergarten and we've been close ever since. :)

Aw man, my calves and thighs are going to be sore tomorrow. x.X
