Trip to San Francisco - city

After the wedding we headed to San Francisco and stayed in Pacifica, a little suburb just outside of S.F. and just fell in love with it. It's right on the Pacific coast. The view from our hotel room was breathtaking! It was hard to leave. Some of the highlights are pictured below but a few not pictured are eating at the Cliff House Restaurant. A beautiful rest. that sits right on the water - literally. You eat delicious seafood while gazing over the Pacific Ocean. A great thanks to the Bleeckers for that idea and many others. Also, we visited Tartine Bakery. A cute little bakery in the middle of a San Francisco neighborhood. You would miss it unless you're a local (or told to go there by my sweet friend Amanda). There's not even a sign on the outside, but it's famous! The owner was recently on the Martha Stewart show and I now know why. Every pastry we put in our mouth was delightful.
Sweet P!
Windy day...do you see Alcatraz in the background?
Bright eyes!
Famous Boudin bread...we brought a lot home!
Looking at the hundreds of sea lions at Pier 39.

Shopping in Chinatown.
Driving down Lombard St. The 'crookedest' street in S.F.
The 'Bush' man. This was hilarious...of course at the expense of other people. This guy would sit behind the bush and wait for people to walk by and then he would pop out from it and scare those passing by. Such a simple concept, but so darn funny! He draws a large crowd.


sand...gotta love it.
First time at the beach/ocean!
