San Francisco Round 2

Madi and Drew had SO much fun in San Francisco that they wanted to go back. Since the cable cars were having repairs done while we were there, we decided to go back and catch a little more. With a short drive back to San Francisco we were off for another day full of fun. We started off at the Golden Gate Bridge again. This time from the San Francisco side. You could see the bridge better and it definitely seemed less windy...

I conquered my fear and walked on the side of the bridge... Definitely not as bad as I had built it up to be. Unfortunately we still were only able to go half way as we put our only change in what was apparently a broken parking meter and we didn't want to get a ticket.




After our walk back, we parked the car in a lot and started on our day... We took the cable car to Chinatown.


Ate lunch in Chinatown -- everything was really good and then decided to walk around for awhile... so we headed back to Coit Tower and hung out for a bit and then to Lombard Street. It was a lot more crowded in San Francisco this round but the kids still wanted a couple more pictures and were acting pretty silly.


We headed back towards the wharf and grabbed some more ice cream. Ended up seeing a really entertaining street show. The performers were really funny and had a lot of energy. Then we went to the Sea Lions for a bit and walked around Pier 39

Silly kids with their sea lions...

We called it a day in San Francisco and headed back to the car... One last drive down Lombard Street -- this time Daddy let Madi and Drew stand out the sunroof and back into traffic to get back to San Jose.

Once we made it back, we headed out to dinner -- got lost a little walking there but finally made it. Ate dinner in the trolley car at the Old Spaghetti Factory and then caught a little bit of the outdoor movie on the Square.
