We drove to San Francisco today, a city we probably only visit once or twice a year even though it's nearly a stone's throw away. In fact, if my memory serves me correctly, I think the last time we were in the city was in September when the twins' grandparents and great aunt were visiting from the East Coast. We went to San Francisco today to show the twins the "big city Christmas lights" because we'd already toured the lights of our town earlier in the week. San Francisco's Neiman Marcus and Macy's were both pretty spectacular with their displays of holiday lights, Christmas trees and wreaths. We also spent part of our afternoon at Fisherman's Wharf and Pier 39. A fun day, however, it was cold....even though I thought we'd all dressed warm enough, by the end of the day we were freezing!!! Highlights of the day: Crazy windy afternoon in San Francisco, clam chowder soup in a sourdough bread bowl, spotting my favorite street performer at Fisherman's Wharf, and the twins running around the boardwalk at Pier 39.
Love this guy! Every time I've been to Fisherman's Wharf, he's always playing in the exact same spot. Of all the street performers I've seen there, he's got major talent, tip-worthy talent!
Mike grabs hold of the girls - a warm welcome hug - at Pier 39 on a cold, windy day.
The twins give mommy a "break" from pushing their stroller.
Swing, swing, swing Taylor...
Swing, swing, swing Paige...
Enjoying the view.
Taylor gets the best view around, from the top of daddy's shoulders.
Enjoying the view.
Merry Christmas from Pier 39!
