Marnie thought the lunch at Tai Pan was perhaps the best of the trip. Hats off
to Juliana for ordering. She even arrived early to be sure to give the kitchen
a heads up for a special soup that takes awhile to prepare. It was indeed
special.
Yup, gustatorily the best lunch of the trip. Still, the view from our table at Nepenthe made up for the only very good
food. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=16592>
For best meal of the trip, can we just call a tie with the Slanted Door? Not
one best, two superbs!
Here is a shot of us just before we left for Palo Alto to finally meet Jeff and
Juliana:

I am not blameless for all the stuff with 2 bags of gear including a bunch of
OM stuff.
Hey, there's food and beverages in there too, we were cool. :-)
I did shoot some Tri-X with OM gear at the lunch but not
processed yet. Moose's shot is better but there is one problem--no Moose. Here
is one though will replace with OM version (OM-2 with Jeff's 24 shift) if it
turns out better.

Aha! I thought there was a shot with Oly old and new, but it couldn't be mine, since they were taken with the new Oly.

And this, omitting Mike and his camera, is the view from that bench.

As we seem to be in lunch mode, here is another lunch shot while we're at it at
Nepenthe:

Marnie slightly in front of focal plane and fill flash not that successful.
If you can't make it, fake it! ;-)

Now that I do the calculations with the tiny flash with GN 4 at ISO 100 at
ISO 200 with f13 had to be a stop closer to have much effect.
Not much to be done with weak flash and slow max sync speed but get very close.
I think we did actually get a few nice shots during the trip.
Indeed, we may find a few. Especially from your infiltration of the photography
workshop. :-)
