A Week in California…

April 17, 2009

How is it possible that I’m ALREADY a bad blogger? Leave it to me to slack off so quickly. In my defense, both of my kids recently had strep AND my little one came down with RSV. Then we were off for a week-long vacation in San Francisco. We had a great time, so I thought I’d update my blog with some photos from our trip. I was not in pro photographer mode, I was in tourist mode… but I hope you’ll enjoy them anyway.

My younger daughter, Ellie, on the first leg of the flight.

We took the kids to Pier 39, where we checked out the aquarium and rode the boat that takes you under the Golden Gate bridge and past Alcatraz (I will spare you those photos, since there were about a hundred people fighting for the prime photo-taking spots).

It was a long day… even Maya was exhausted.

Walking down the pier at the Embarcadero. That’s the Bay Bridge (to Oakland) in the background.

There are some… umm… interesting things to see at the Embarcadero!

We are still recovering from the trip, which means that I have no business being up at 12:44am posting these photos. Off to bed I go… I’ll post again soon with some session photos!
