I'm going to give up on putting these in any order...

I ate the whole thing? Ick...I had a stomach ache afterwards.
The Chinatown lions.
There's the before picture when we received our treats.
Kyle's treat--the Gold Rush.

Chinatown lanterns hanging above the street.
The craziness of Chinatown.
A streetcar (named Desire)...I'm sad we didn't get to ride on one.
The Chinatown Gate.
Me, being silly.

The fog is finally starting to burn off.
That's a view of SF from the water. It's so cool how you can see the steep streets from here!

Me, smelling a flower.


A view of the Hyde St. Pier from afar.
I love kitties! I met this one on Hyde St. Pier.
We suckered someone into taking our picture.
Welcome to Pier 39. These are its residents.

This was on our way back to Idaho. I thought it was a cool picture because of the greenish color.
This was also on our way back. I thought it was also cool because of the division of color on the mound.
Now this is really where we stayed. Redwood Inn. It wasn't too bad actually for $90/night.
Alcatraz Island.
Out for the day and walking and walking and walking.

The Square by night. Mmmmm....Makes it even more tempting at night. All the buildings in the square were a chocolate color.

Banana slug! Yum!


The main walkway to enter the Beringer Estate.
Inside the Alcatraz main entrance area after you get off the pier.
Look at the size of that trunk!



We just walked up Lombard Street. You literally had to slant yourself forward to walk up that thing!
More Pier 39 residents. All the tourists had stopped to watch the sea lions.
Fisherman's Wharf--home of the fish smell!
Captain Morgan, I guess...
SF from the water.

This was taken from the Golden Gate Bridge while we were biking over it.

The best picture ever taken!
That crazy Lombard Street!


That tree in the background is growing bent over--it's said to be drunk.

A vine. The buds are beginning to come out.
Our tour guide, Jason. He's British. And drunk because he'd had 5 other tours that day.
The Beringer Estate. The Beringer Brothers paid a grand total of $28,000 for this house back in the day. Every inch of the house was imported.

Some sights of the surrounding wine country. We were so happy to have just tasted 3 wines!
Starting off the winery tour with a taste of wine.
