San Franciso!

We spent the day today enjoying some of the fun places that San Francisco has to offer with the Littles and Evan. Our day started with some breakfast at a trendy little place in Haight Ashbury, followed by some time in Fisherman's Warf. The guys found a neat antique arcade where they enjoyed all kinds of old fashioned games (that counted as Andrew's "pick"). Then we hit the Boudin Sourdough Bakery (Taylor's pick), where Taylor got his fix of some delicious sourdough bread (he ate almost an entire loaf on his own!) After that Evan got his pick by taking us to an area in Fisherman's Warf where all kinds of seafood stands are lined up with yummy take out options. Evan, Gwen and Andrew enjoyed some fresh seafood while Taylor considered buying even more sourdough! From there it was Gwen's turn, and she made the wise choice of picking the Ghirardelli Square; an enormous Ghirardelli with multiple shops and lots of samples :) Unfortunately we ended up with an odd amount of samples, which led us with no other option than to have Taylor and Andrew arm wrestle for it. Andrew won! Next was my turn, so I headed straight for the sea lions on Pier 39! For whatever reason, tons of seal lions hang out each year at this pier and are hilarious to watch as they bark and growl over their jam-packed sleeping spaces. Very cute!

After all of our walking around we were all ready for a little something to tide us over until dinner, so we headed to an interesting little spot that was half Indian restuarant and half Irish Pub. Hmmmm. It was cool in a really weird way, and we at least had fun in our confusion together.

Our last stop of the day was dinner at a Thai restuarant. YUM! The food was delicious and SO spicy, but a definite treat to end our awesome day with our best friends in San Fran! We will miss these guys as we continue on in our travels!
