Japanese Tea Garden and a pair of shoes

One of the things I intended to do in San Francisco was buy a pair of Dansko sandals. I love them, but can't get them at home, and it's a hassle getting them online, so I try to take advantage of being in Cali and buy a pair... but it wasn't easy! Nordstrom's had the shoes and the mules but no sandals, and the little shoe shop just outside Chinatown Gate only had the sandals I had already. However, I was on my way to the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park and had noticed a shoe shop at the streetcar stop on Irving (just where it turns up to go on to Judah at The Little Roaster). I went in and, lo and behold, not only did they have Dansko sandals, but they had them on sale! So I got the sandals, and I got a pot of genmai cha as well.
