San Francisco Surprise

Ryan pulled off a huge surprise for our 9th anniversary! He arranged everything for us to go on a weekend trip to San Francisco with some friends. None of us had been there so it was one new fun thing after another. 
First, we rode the cable car to meet up with Fred and Meili.
Our next stop was Fisherman's Wharf for some clam chowder in sourdough bread bowls. Mmmmm!
It was raining our whole first day, we just made the most of it. 
The sea lion didn't seem too excited about his party. 
We tried out some chocolate cupcakes filled with caramel and a big fudge sunday at Ghiradelli Square. 
Ryan wanted to see if the water was cold. Yeah, it was. There were tons of crazy people swimming in it though. Brr!

Day 2 started at Alcatraz

There were great views of San Fran from the island




The wind and rain didn't do much for either of our hair. :)

We took another ferry to Sausalito. It was a cute town with fun shops. We had some great seafood at a little place right on a dock. 
Had to watch some brave souls drive down Lombard street. 
Our hotel was right next to China town. This was the 2nd floor entrance. 
We had so much fun! Thanks to all the friends and family that helped out with our kids!
