So for a few holidays combined Matt surprised me with tickets for a weekend trip to San Francisco- just the two of us. We got the coolest list of awesome things we could do, see & eat from a local San Franciscan.
Eating what the local told us was the best burrito in San Fransisco at La Taqueria. It was huge.
That night we went to the Oakland Temple. I love the temple grounds of that temple with the palm trees, it's just so pretty. And it was pretty awesome that we had such a detective of a temple worker at the door to help figure out the barcode number on Matt's recommend since it had just gone through the wash a few days before.
Eating at a little French/Italian restaurant. It was very small and cozy inside. I wasn't feeling very good that night but the fresh mozzarella-tomato-basil-olive oil salad & roasted zucchini were really good.
Matt loved getting his picture taken at this little pastry shop just down from where we had dinner. The pastries really weren't that good but it was still fun.
This was the cool view out our window. Cities are crazy places. It was fun to experience.
Trying an egg custard tart in Chinatown. Chinatown was fun and the streets were busy getting ready for the Chinese New Year.
Golden Gate Bridge. We went to an awesome Farmer's Market where we saw so much fresh yummy food. Eating a Vietnamese soup at the Ferry Plaza Farmer's Market.
Ghirardelli Square.Yummy banana split- the fudge sauce they have is something else, it was so yummy.
We got to see Wicked while we were there too. It was fun. Although that's what we planned our trip to San Francisco for, it definitely wasn't the highlight in my book of all the other fun things we got to do.
We had breakfast at this fun old restaurant called Sears where I got Swedish Pancakes that were actually like 16 tiny pancakes.
Before we came home we drove to Crissy Field where we got to walk along the beach then we headed to the airport driving a different direction so we could see the Pacific Ocean. We saw some big waves, it was really beautiful. I didn't get pictures but also during our trip we drove down Lombard Street and up into the richest neighborhood in SF.
Yay for a new little arrival and a boy even! Congrats. Your trip looks like it was an adventure full of lots of fun experiences. I hope we get to see you sometime this summer, maybe at our 10 year class reunion!
