San Fransisco

Mike had a conference in San Fransisco a few weeks back and I was able to tag along as Jeanne stayed at our house with the kids and held down the fort.  I basically have to make a spreadsheet of everyones schedule to get out of town.  But the kids enjoyed the time with their Grandma to themselves and I think she managed everything quite well.

We got there on a Tuesday night....by the time we got there and got to the hotel we had time to grab dinner from a burger joint across the street from the hotel and then we went back and went to bed.  The next morning we had a tour set up to go to the Muir Woods and three wineries, two in Sonoma and one in Napa.  We also got to stop by the Golden Gate Bridge on our way back.  We then asked the driver to let us out at the Fishermen's Wharf.  We walked around there for a while and then walked back through China Town and ate dinner.  We then headed back to the hotel and I went to bed and Mike stayed up and worked on his talk for the next day.
The next day Mike went to his meetings and I went down and walked along the pier.....and went back to the Wharf and got the kids some souvenirs.  Mike got finished with his meetings and then we went for a late lunch, walked around some more and then headed back to get ready for the baseball game.  The Cards happened to be in town, which was super fun....eventhough we lost.  The game was FREEEEEZING cold, but was very cool to see another stadium.
After the game we headed back, went to bed, and hit the road for the airport first thing in the morning.  It was a fun trip!  Glad I got to tag a long with him.

A little FaceTime action the first morning, I was just getting out of bed and they were getting ready to head to school.......
