Trip to San Fran

Whenever possible, Wade and I try to get away for a night or two, just the two of us, for our anniversary.  A couple of times we've had a baby in tow, and a few times it hasn't worked out at all, but this year we made it happen--kid free--and even FLEW to our destination!  (Gotta love those flight benefits.)

I thought we were headed to Maine, but Wade surprised me and set things up for San Francisco instead.   We packed a fun whirlwind trip into two days and really made the most of it, despite record low temps in the low 50's!  We visited Fisherman's Wharf, walked Lombard Street, rode the trolley cars, and--our personal favorite--rode a tandem bike across the Golden Gate bridge!  We stayed in the historic Nob Hill Hotel and really enjoyed walking almost everywhere and enjoying the local culture.  (Lots to pray for here, folks!)  Even got hit up by the ACLU for money to support all kinds of things that break my heart and make my stomach turn...but that's another story.

A few pics...






14 years, and looking ahead to many more!

Awesome! My hubby and I went to SF for a sports filled weekend a few years ago. It is a fun town!
