lou gerstner book Mrs. Madrigal Olympia Dukakis brought this wonderful Tales of the City character to vibrant life in





Mrs. Madrigal Olympia Dukakis brought this wonderful Tales of the City character to vibrant life in the mini-series based on Armistead Maupin s books (see p53). Anna Madrigal is a transsexual land lady who rents out apartments to young singles, both gay and straight, and tends to her mari juana plants and her charges with equal wisdom and spirituality.

High-tech and minimalist white marble interiors radiate modernity in this Japanese-style environment. Its cool comfort and tranquil luxury, such as silk wallpaper, soothe the spirit and free the mind. The excellent Anzu restaurant creates the same peaceful atmosphere. d 222 Mason St Map Q3

Hiking The Bay Area is replete with magnificent hiking trails for every type of nature lover. Land s End offers some wild terrain to scramble over (see p117), and Mount Tamalpais is criss crossed with trails (see p124). But just scaling the city s hills is enough hiking for most people.
