Today's t
echnology is amazing. I am writing this post from our hotel room in San Francisco. Matthew and I are here in California on vacation. We have just spent the day driving and walking around this beautiful city, and are now taking a short break before heading out to dinner in China Town. So while Matt's in the shower, I'm using this little wireless computer card to share our day with the world. I don't have a clue how it works, but it's cool! And crazy!
We already love it here, and we've had a great first day. We found a really cool church to attend this morning, walked the famous Golden Gate Bridge-(not really golden, folks) and then had
lunch at a cafe in this little town over the water called Saulsalito. We walked the piers, laughed at the seals, and drove the crooked street. In fact our hotel is just up the road, on Lombard St. I forgot how INCREDIBLY steep the roads are here! We love it. Here's a shot of us on the bridge this afternoon and one down on the waterfront at sunset. More photos and thoughts to come.
Day 2 of our vacation to San Francisco: Enjoying the view from Alamo Square (I didn't know what Alamo Sq. was either, but recognize the houses in the background? Here's a hint: Everywhere you look (echo) there's a face, somebody who needs you...) riding the old fashion cable cars in the rain, and then a trip out to Alcatraz Island--also in the rain. We had a beautiful sunny day yesterday to walk around the town, but today turned into a typical, rainy and foggy day on the coast of Cali. It really didn't damper our plans too much, just made it a little more classic San Fran. The rain definitely set the mood for our trip out to the infamous prison. The audio tour was surprisingly interesting but we were very glad to get out of there and back into warm clothes on the mainland. Dinner and a movie wrapped up a great day 2 of vacation.
