2-Year Anniversary Get-Away in San Francisco

Ethan and I spent 2 nights in San Francisco. When we checked in, Ethan mentioned that it was our anniversary so the guy gave us an upgrade. Our room was on the 44th floor and we had the most amazing view. I took a few pictures from our balcony. I have to say I couldn't look down too long because of how high we were. It sure was a beautful view, especially at night.




Our first night, we tried a Thai Restaraunt. The food was soooooo good!


The next morning, we went to a famous bakery called, "Tartine." We enjoyed some of their yummy bread and a pastry for breakfast before heading out to explore the city.



As we were walking, we saw some cool houses, like these in the picture.



Pier 39. We had so much fun watching the sea lions.



We rented bikes at Pier 39 and rode all the way across the bridge to a town called Sausalito. All together, it was about a 9 mile ride. Boy, were we tired, but it was so much fun!



Just before riding across the Golden Gate Bridge.

Just after completing our trip across the bridge. Tired, but feeling a great sense of accomplishment.






Instead of riding 9 miles back to Pier 39, we opted to take the ferry back! This is the view we got of Alcatraz.



Our view of San Francisco from the ferry.



On the morning of our 2-year annivesary, we had breakfast at a cute little diner. We flew back home that day so there wasn't much time to explore but we had a leisurely morning.
