The Streets of San Francisco

We just took our first vacation together! Our official honeymoon that we had been planning for a few months now. It started out in hurry. We planned to head down to San Francisco early to see a baseball game on Sunday, but I still had to work on Saturday till 5:00! So off we went. We drove to Redding and got there about 1:00am. Then, we got up about 7:00 and raced down to San Francisco and got there in plenty of time to see the game. It was great. The rest of our time there was exciting too. Take a look:

Day 1: Giants vs. Dodgers

It was a great day to watch a baseball game. AT&T Park is one of a most beautiful parks in the country. There were lots of fans for both teams there. The Dodgers won 5-3.









































After the game, we decided to ride the cable car up the hill. Here's Andrea taking her first cable car ride.

























Day 2: Golden Gate Park

Monday was kind of a free day. We were supposed to check into our official hotel today (we stayed at a different hotel in Pacifica on Sunday), so we had an extra day to play. Andrea wanted to see Golden Gate Park, so we walked around checking out the sights:

Stopping to smell the roses at the Rose Garden.



























Here's the Horticultural Center.






















The wonders of the Arboretum










































After getting done at the park, we went and checked into our hotel. Mom and Dad have had a time share here since I was little. Here's a view from the window of our room.















Next, we hopped onto another cable car and went down to Fisherman's Warf and Ghirardelli Square to get some chocolate. Here's Andrea standing on the running boards for the first time.















Here we are with the loot.

















Well, that's all I have time to show you today. There's lots more from San Francisco, and then we'll head to Lake Tahoe and beyond! Stay tuned!
