We spent our wedding night at the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco. After we checked in we made love and then the hotel provided champaign... Then we had drinks and dinner at the revolving restaurant on the top of the building watching fireworks shows over the bay. Different cities had different shows and we were spinning around at a speed of one revolution every half hour. The windows showed different views of different cities as we went along. This hotel is famous for glass elevators overlooking the big indoor garden space...

On my 21st birthday JoAnn and I went to Casa Valhalla in Sausalito. It was an elegant dining room with a black piano player similar to the movie "Casablanca"...

With my parents in the 1960s we had drinks at the "Tonga Room" in the basement of the Fairmont Hotel. It was a bar designed around the hotel's swimming pool. They had a floating barge with a swing band and the tables were under thatched roofs like a tropical island resort. They turned on sprinklers in the roof and that simulated a rainstorm... Flashing lightning and thunder made us feel like we were outdoors in the South Pacific. This hotel also had outside elevators on the side of the building.
