Pier 39

We took one day of our vacation and went to San Francisco with the kids. It was so much fun to take them there and for them to see everything that is so familiar to me. We started our day visiting our Aunt Gen who lives in an assisted living home in Fairfield. She is technically not even our Aunt, but she is related, so we have always called her that. We got to see my Aunt Alice and all of her kids. It was fun to see everyone. After that we headed to Scomas for a seafood lunch on the Wharf. The kids had to use their manners, and put their cloth napkins in their laps. Claire discovered that she loves, loves, loves sourdough bread - that's my girl! Owen decided that fancy pasta is not his favorite thing, but he ate it anyways, and I found out where the bathroom was in Scomas because I only visited it about 5 times between the two kids. After lunch we went to Pier 39 where the sea lions live. The kids had a great time watching them, and then they got to ride the carousel on the Pier. That was the highlight of their day. Grandpa bought them both cotton candy, and they had a great time. The best part was that they were so enthralled with everything that they kept running into people because they were so busy looking around. Hopefully we will get to visit there again soon.
