We have a bit of whirlwind trip coming up which made it certainly difficult to pack. We are excited for the time with family though so here we go…

First stop San Francisco! The girls were thrilled when we arrived, after our very early morning flight. They took to the hills and had a ball running down them. Now, running up them is quite a different story…

We walked from our hotel down to the pier to meet with up with my sister’s family. We got a sneak peak at China Town. 

So much happening. So many distractions. 

We enjoyed beautiful views on that little walk.

We arrived at the Wharf and spent a few hours at the Exploratorium. 

I snuck this beauty from the balcony of the cafe. Not a bad view at all. 

The drinking fountain was a big hit for all the kids. 

Cousins reunited. They sure were happy to see each other!

We took the street car back to the hotel. The girls were pretty pumped about that too. 

Back at the hotel the girl posed and then acted supremely goofy for a few photos before we headed off to dinner at Bix. The food and company were fabulous. We had a delightful first day in the city by the bay.
