Mike Kuniavsky and I drove to Mojave airport to see the SpaceShipOne launch. It was a blast.

At the time, the launch seemed to be completely successful (unlike my photography - I see now why the serous photographers have big zoom lenses). We didn't stay for the press conference, so it wasn't until I got back and checked the news that I found out that they had some serious glitches. Still, they made it to 100 kilometers and all's well that ends well.

(Here's Mike's post.)

San Francisco's Carnival was today and it was a lot of fun! I took some photos. (I could have taken more, but my camera ran out of memory. Next time I'll do better.) IMG_0371.JPG

My commute takes me across San Francisco Bay, either by ferry or by bus. I've created a photo album of pictures I've taken along the way.
