Fun in San Francisco!!



We had a great trip to San Francisco for Spring Break! It was a very long long long long drive, but we made the best of it, and NO my daughter is NOT flipping you off, it's the other finger :)

We had a great time at the Golden Gate Park


The Beach was too cold to swim in, but fun to look at!


The infamous trolley was a great ride!
The beautiful Painted Ladies (I LOVE the houses in this city!)
While on the sightseeing bus, everyone was STARVING so Jonny went and got a whole butload of hot dogs.....made the hot dog man really really happy!

The double decker bus was windy windy windy, but a fun ride.
And of course, no trip is complete without lots and lots of swimming.
We had a good time at Alcatraz, I think I'm going to post this sign in my house.

THE ROCK! (can we leave naughty children here?)
We had yummy crepes for breakfast one day, mmmmmmm mmmmmm good.
On the pier there were a whole bunch of Sea Lions, they were barking and fighting, it was pretty cool!
Cold and beautiful sunsets.
No trip to San Francisco would be complete without a trip and a big SUNDAE from Ghiradelli!
A ride down the crookedest street is so fun and different!
On Easter we went to a beautiful Catholic Cathedral, Jen and Marissa lit candles. It was a change from what we were used to and a neat church to see.
We went to the Palace, it was pouring rain and freezing cold, but made for pretty pictures!
Muir Woods and the Redwoods was gorgeous!

We had such a great time together, with great friends. What a fun trip we had. It is so fun to go to new places and see things we don't usually see. San Francisco is such a unique, and beautiful city! The kids were great, the company was great, the food was INCREDIBLE, and the memories will last a lifetime!
