San Francisco

On Saturday we drove the hour and a half in to San Francisco. This is my attempt at a picture driving across the Bay Bridge. It was cool, but not quite as cool as the more famous Bridge (a picture of that still to come).

This is us from Fisherman's Warf with sailboats and Alcatraz in the background. Below is a closeup of Alcatraz

We stopped and visited the sea lions at Pier 39. They were all over the place, laying around, walking around, fighting, swimming and making a lot of noise! Check out our video of them below!

This was my favorite sea lion. He was sick of the crowds, so he found his own space all by himself to sit and bask in the sun.

This is the Boudin Sourdough Bakery at Fisherman's Wharf. It was cool to watch them baking through the window. They had bread in all sorts of shapes and sizes like alligators and turtles.

After the Wharf we hiked up the hills and caught some cool views of the city. It was crazy how hilly it was. We were so proud of Lucy hiking around with us being 7.5 months pregnant. Dan and I got tired and woke up sore the next day, so we can only imagine how she felt. She is one tough Cookie!

This is us at Lombard street the self-proclaimed crookedest street in the world, and as Dan pointed out, maybe the mostest nicely landscaped street as well.

Not to be outdone two block away from Lombard is Filbert street. Its the self proclaimed steepest street in the world. The brakes of these cars were squeaking and grinding all the way down. We wondered how often San Franciscans have to get their break pads changed.

This is the Trans-America building, maybe San Fran's most famous building.

We didn't get the chance to ride the cable cars, but that didn't stop us from snapping a few shots of them. They are way cool.

We also had to stop by Post Card Row, to get a picture with the sweet Victorian Houses. Dan kept singing the Full House theme song and he wanted to play soccer in the park where we are standing. But we had too much stuff to see and very little time left to see it.

Of course we had to get a picture with the Golden Gate Bridge. It is really pretty and cool to see in person. We were a little cold by now. We have gotten too use to the So. Cal sun!
