Visit to the barber shop

Alec was in desperate need of a haircut before jetting off to Quebec, and since our previous DIY efforts resulted in much crying and screaming (read: stress for everyone) I decided to use my first vacation day to take Alec to the barber shop, with some treats afterward.

Apprehension...

Contentment

 We ended up at Chong's Barber Shop in North Beach - while it wasn't a luxurious salon, there were toys and a patient Vietnamese woman who did a pretty good job of taming Alec's mane.

Then off for a cookie at Stella Pastry around the corner, followed by a few rides on the carousel at the Zeum.

More photos coming soon -
