We were NOT prepared for the weather in San Fran! It was freezing and so cloudy and windy by the bridge. I don't think we ever saw the whole thing, we saw the top and the bottom but never the middle.
Golden Gate Bridge
The highlight of the trip for Zach was definitely the Seward slides. They were these big concrete slides built into the hillside just right in the middle of a neighborhood. There was a bunch of cardboard laying around from other people which helped you go really fast. Zach spent the first 10 min crying that he didn't want to go down and then next 30 min telling us it was the best thing he'd ever done. We had to drag him away.
Brady got in on the fun (and I ruined my shoes trying to make us go slow!)
Hank was a pro
Zach and Hank liked racing
I really wanted a pic by O'Farrell street but Aaron refused to park so we pulled over and took a fast picture. I don't think you can really see it!
I can't remember the name of this street, it's famous for being really windy (not windy wind-y as in it winds all the way down, how do you spell that?)We also went down the steepest street but the pictures weren't very impressive so you'll just have to trust me on that one.
We went down to the Ferry Building where we had delicious cheese, bread and milk from the creamery. It was fun but Zach was not in a mood for pictures.
We took the street car down to Fisherman's Wharf where the sea lions had apparently left for the summer! There were a few hanging out but I don't think we got them in the picture.
Riding the street car (they were cheaper and less crowded than the trolley cars and our kids still thought they were cool)

The curvy street is Lombard St. :) This is where Jared grew up, we haven't been back in years since his parents don't live there anymore. It's fun seeing pics of it. Looks like you hit the hot spots!
Look at you guys all bundled. I think San Fran is so pretty. It looks like a great trip. (sigh) summer is coming to a close.
