Amazing San Francisco Views

When we left San Francisco Airport on our way back to Germany the weather was warm and sunny with clear skies. Charly took these pics from the window and they came out so nice that I want to share them with you. For those of you who know SF, can you find certain places?

bye-bye SF...

Golden Gate Bridge & Ocean Beach

Whenever we go to San Francisco we always like to go to Golden Gate Bridge and Ocean Beach. So this winter was no exception, even as cold and windy as it was. We drove across the bridge, made a few stops and took some quick pics. In the summer the boys like to play in the water at the beach, but this time it was too cold, although they would have if we would have let them.

Pancake Boy

Marcus loves pancakes and would eat them everyday if he could. He kept asking if we could go to the International House of Pancakes (Ihop). He ate 4 big pancakes and took two home for breakfast the next morning. We also went to Denny´s before the Warriors game where he ate more pancakes. He also like to eat them here in Germany but we don´t have ihop, so I showed him how to make pancake mix. He can do it all by himself, even cracks the egg! I just have to cook them in the pan for him. The one thing he wanted to bring back home was pancake syrup cause they only have small bottles of maple syrup for 4 euros. So he bought 3 big bottles and put them in his suitcase! Mrs. Buttersworth is his favorite.

Exploratorium, Zoo

We did a lot of tourist stuff while in SF. We went to this science, technical museum called The Exploratorium where the kids can play with all these cool exhibits and things. They also went to the zoo while I got my hair cut at a salon. We love San Francisco...

Golden State Warriors

We got tickets to go see a real live NBA game at the Oracle Arena in Oakland. The Warriors were playing against the LA Lakers so we had to take Aunt Gloria with us. Erica and Gary met us there too. The Lakers won so Auntie was happy because she is the biggest Lakers fan I know. The boys played in the Kids Zone area and Auntie and I had like 3 beers! We had a lot of fun and got to see Kobe. It was a great night!!!
