Frisco Pics: Day 2-4






































Here are some of my favorite pics recapping the rest of our trip last week to Cali. And I ought to say here BIG THANKS to Mammow and Oma for taking great care of the boys so we could get away. Man, that was nice.

Quick recaps:

Day 2 -- Conference day: I went to a mentoring conference (by Friends for Youth). I did a workshop, and after a lot of prayer and prep and prayer, was really pleased with how it turned out and was also quite relieved to get it behind me. After the conference was done, we went to check into our other hotel -- Mariott for $55/night via priceline...so much nicer than the Sofitel! Even got a room with a beautiful view of a bay. We headed for the real Fisherman's Wharf...which really is a tourist trap...reminded me a lot of areas of New Orleans with the souvenir shops and stuff...but the outdoor seafood vendors made the experience worthwhile. From there, we got some asiago sour dough bread from Boudin and made our way to Giardhelli Square.

Day 3 -- Golden Gate, Sausalito, and Napa Valley day.

Day 4 -- Lombard Street, Muir Woods, and More coast day

Day 5 -- Returned to icy Chicago. Glad to have had the opportunity and super thankful to be home safely with the boys.
