"The City"

So over labor day weekend, Maren , Ryan, and Leah were gracious enough to let us come up and visit them. We took the opportunity to get to know Leah better and educate her on how to act and prepare for BYU football games. We also got to go and visit San Francisco, although people around the area refer to it simply as "The City". Personally, I think that is a little strange and it makes you sound like you come from the backwoods of Tennessee and have never seen a building taller than two stories, but hey, it works for them so we'll roll with it. We took the subway into "The City" and then proceeded to walk further than I have since I was on my mission. Leah was a trooper through it all. Here are the highlights.

Heather and I at Pier 39 enjoying the cool breeze


The seals sunbathing and fighting/ mating. It was actually pretty funny watching them play "king of the dock"

"Welcome to the Rock!"

Fisherman's Wharf, for those of you who can't read. Home of the best clam chowder I have ever had in my life! and I bet that Burger King in the background has a killer BK Big Fish sandwich!

Eat your heart out mom! Ghirardelli Square- this place would make Willy Wonka have a sweet tooth. Maren and Heather shared a sundae, while I could barely make it through 3 squares of a caramel chocolate bar because it was so rich!

So San Francisco is officially the weirdest place on earth- If you need a sign for it you have a problem!

Even the post office gets into being different- got to love R2D2

Talk about stage fright! Can you imagine going to the bathroom in the middle of the side walk?! Just think of the looks if you made some embarrassing sound and stunk the place up!
