Hard not to sound like a sycophant, so let's just say I really really enjoyed my stay in Kay Marie & Gerald's gorgeous modern urban space. They not only opened their home but also their hearts in showing much kindness and generosity above and beyond. Loved exploring colourful Oakland and the jewel Lake is easy walking distance, as are some funky shops. All of of this in perfect early summer weather, so naturally I did not really want this holiday to end.
