A day in San Francisco

Can you believe this is BEFORE they got a sugar dose at Ghiradelli Square!

My very handsome boys

Here is the Golden Gate Bridge right before we zipped under it in our little boat.

We took the kids to San Francisco for a day during Spring Break. It had been a couple of years since the kids had gone so they really enjoyed seeing all the sights of the "big city". We took a boat ride into the bay, under the Golden Gate Bridge, and circled Alcatraz--it was definitely a highlight of our day. We walked all around the city, enjoying all the various street performers--the drummers, the robotic tin men, flame swallowers, break dancers, and our favorite the Bush Man (who hides behind a bunch of leaves and jumps out and scares unsuspecting tourists. Then everyone else gives him money for the laugh!) Another favorite activity was taking the glass elevators up to the 32nd floor of the St. Francis Westin hotel and riding them up and down, overlooking the city the entire time. It was a very colorful, musical and adventurous day for us!
