They were so cute when we got them. Kay was spayed just before we got her so that at that day, she was a kind of shy, quiet and sweet cat. We played with her a lot.  Now she becomes a real cat. She is demanding, noisy and bossy.

Talee came to our house. We chose her since she was tinier than Kay. I thought that Kay would be better with a smaller one. Now? We found out that she is a Maine coon, which is known by big size and mild temperament.

How they have changed since kittens!!!  But we still love them, especially when they make their tails stick straight up whenever they recognize our voices.

After visiting Korea, Matt and I went to SanFranciso for Math joint meeting. It was the fist time there and we really enjoyed it. First of all, the hotel was great, which was a suite room on the top of a grand old hotel. We had a access to the club so that we could enjoyed little bit of snack and drinks there. Being a club member makes me feel special a little.. 🙂  We went to Fisherman’s wharf for lunch. Big Fish~~. Matt liked them a lot, but to me, of course, Korean style of cooking would be better. If my morning  sickness was over at that time, I might enjoy more. And one night, we took the cable car. Matt showed lots of interest how they work. I just remembered it cost a lot to maintain them. Most of the time, we were in the conference to listen to Math talks and we happened to meet unexpected old friends from Wisconsin. It was a good travel overall.
