Even though I didn't have to leave for the airport until 8pm, it still felt like not a real full day. We had breakfast at Le Marais, a French cafe not too far away (they used to have a spot in the Ferry Building that we tried last time I was in town). I had a sweet crepe with butter and sugar, plus a croissant type thing with asparagus and goat cheese; Jessica had le Complete, which is a buckwheat crepe with egg, ham and cheese. My only mistake was ordering just a drip coffee--it was weak and they served it with milk instead of half & half. I needed to find a hat for Carter; we assumed we could find one in one of the many souvenir shops at Fisherman's Wharf, but no. You can buy hats for the 49ers and the Golden State Warriors but not the Giants? That is how we found ourselves in a Lyft on the way to Giants Stadium. On a game day. Bedlam, as you would expect. But they sure had plenty of hats! Mission accomplished, we did a few little errands: stopped for a snack of chips and guacamole at the Ferry Building (meh), picked up a little more candy from See's, and went to the library to pick up Jessica's hold. For dinner we tried a neighborhood place called Gusto Pinsa Romana, a cute little place specializing in Roman style pizza (very puffy and light crust). We shared a margherita and one with spicy salami, ricotta and hot honey. They were both very good, but it was too much; if I could rewind we would have split one pizza and a salad. I can honestly say I had enough pizza and sushi this trip. Then off to SFO for the dreaded overnight flight home.
