Day 2 -- All day in Pacifica, California -- no miles

Today dawned sunny and bright and turned out to be pretty awesome day for all. In the morning hours our daughter-in-law, Caroline drove into San Francisco to the French patisserie called Tartine which has been described as "premier" in local tourist literature. There Caroline selected an entire cakebox full of fabulous pastries, from sweet to savory, and then brought them over to our RV park for the family to enjoy. Once she had arrived, we gathered for coffee and pastry at our very own camp picnic table overlooking the majesty of the Pacific Ocean right outside our door.

After we finished our "breakfast" Caroline and grandson, Nico, had a chore to perform and left. Son, Jason, then broke out his photography gear and spent the next hour or so using the two of us as happily-married subjects in senior-citizen photos he intended to submit to the Getty stock photo images company. Jason has the distinction of having many thousands of photos that are available to advertisors via Getty iStock Images.

As one often does when on vacation, we rode with Jason back to his house where we met Caroline and Nico for a charcuterie board lunch, cheese, salami, olives, chips, salsa along with mango and watermelon. No one was really hungry but we knew we would be skipping a formal lunch in order to be on time for grandson Nico's confirmation in the local Catholic Church.

We traveled to Pacifica to attend our grandson, Nico’s, Confirmation mass. Confirmation, is the third Sacrament after baptism and first communion.

The high mass was at 2:00, and it was emotionally moving to see these young people who studied for months to be “sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit and strengthened to the Body of Christ.” Nico took his Confirmation name of Joseph from his uncle, and he was sponsored by the family’s good friend Marcella.

After a round of photos, the family celebrated with a dinner at Nico’s favorite restaurant, Bennihana, where the food is not only delicious but entertaining as well.
