On Friday after the wedding, we drove down to Berekely to stay for the next two nights. Friday afternoon we drove into San Francisco! I'd been to SF a few times by myself before we had kids and really enjoy it there... so it was especially fun to go as a family!
First stop - the Julius Kahn playground on the southern edge of the Presidio!
They had some really neat play equipment and the kids had a blast getting their wiggles out
More from the Presidio... the Golden Gate Bridge from the waterfront along Marine Drive, near the Warming Hut and Bookstore
Alcatraz
It was windy on the water!
We drove back to Berkeley after this and had another yummy dinner with Lainie and Gary. The next day, we ventured into the city on the BART and explored the waterfront near Fisherman's Wharf.

Jellyfish!
They have over 300 feet of tunnels featuring marine life from the San Francisco Bay
Wiggly!
Touching sting rays in the touch pool!
Beyond the docks, we caught a glimpse of race 4 of the Louis Vitton Cup Round Robin (the boat in the background with the Prada sail; this was part of the 34th America's Cup events)
We walked along the waterfront and saw two historic ships from afar
Rylan was even brave enough to pose with one of the street artist/entertainers! :)
We had fish and chips for lunch, took in several more sights along the waterfront and had ice cream cones from Ben and Jerry's, then took a historic street car back to the BART stop. It was quite a day! And so much fun to explore SF with our family!
Sleepy and reading bedtime stories with Dada at the hotel :)
