While we enjoyed the tour, Micah wasn't quite as interested. I think he slept like this for over 2 hours. Everyone thought he was quite amusing!

Ella sees what life was like "behind bars"

We decided to do an Alcatraz tour. It was very interesting, although Ella wanted to run throughout most of the jail.

When we weren't able to get around with their strollers the kids hitched a ride on our backs. Uphill was fine, but downhill left my lowerback aching. Ella & Micah both LOVED being at eye level with the rest of the world.

The view of San Francisco from the kids perspective

The kids saw most of the city from their strollers. We had to prop their strollers against lightposts, ect to avoid them rolling down the hill.

You can't go to San Fran & not ride the cable cars

Andree & Ella flew down to San Francisco to meet Micah & I for a weekend exploring the town. We had a blast inspite of Ella running a fever throughout the trip, throwing up on Andree as the boarded the plane & an early AM trip to the ER to get her some antibiotics.

The kids enjoyed the cable car trip up the San Francisco streets. Micah watched the buildings go buy & Ella didn't budge as the trolly bell rang.
