San Fran Weekend

Jake turned the big 2-7 yesterday and we celebrated with a weekend in the big city. We left on Sunday morning and stayed the night. On our way down we stopped right before the Golden Gate Bridge and took pictures. There are numerous stops up a long a winding road where you can park and get out to take pictures. We stopped at all of them, but I won't bore you with too many photos.



At the last stop there was a point that you could hike up to and the views were spectacular.




After the bridge we checked into our hotel and then ventured out to Fisherman's Wharf because 1.) our hotel was in the area and 2.) we like to do touristy things.

We stumbled upon the coolest street performance I've ever seen. It was a group of 4 people doing circus type routines.

We then made our way down to Pier 39. The following picture is probably one of my favorite from the entire trip.




After Pier 39 we headed down to Pier 33 to go on a night tour of Alcatraz. It was amazing. I'll post pictures of that tomorrow.
