San Francisco, Again!

Ethan and I love travelling together.  It just seems like life slows down when we're on vacation together. 

At school, I had a 4-day weekend (President's weekend).  So, we took advantage of it by flying to San Francisco for the weekend.  San Francisco is one of our favorite places to go for a quick getaway. We can find super deals on Southwest Airlines. Also, Ethan goes on Priceline.com and gets a great deal on hotels. Ethan loves doing research and finding great places to eat. We practically "eat our way" through San Francisco. :)

Another great thing we love about going on vacation is having t.v.  We don't have cable at home, so when we stay in a hotel room we love just enjoying some relaxing time in front of the t.v.  We usually watch several episodes of C.S.I. Miami.  :)  It's the simple pleasures we enjoy...

I just love spending time with my husband.  We always come back so refreshed...

The first day we got there, we went to "Fiddler on the Roof" at The Golden Gate Theatre.


Every Saturday, they have a Farmer's Market at Ferry Plaza so we thought we would check it out.  It was such a fun experience checking out all the food booths.  The weather was absolutely beautiful that day too.


Of course, we couldn't resist taking a trip to Ghiradelli Square for an ice cream sundae.  They melt their own chocolate for the fudge on the sundae.  Yum!!!
























Riding a cable car is always a fun thing to do in San Francisco...


Ethan found out about this restaurant called "Mama's."  Evidently, you have to get there before the door opens at 8:00 because a long line forms.  We got there around 7:30 and sure enough, there was already a line!  When they opened the door we were seated with the first round of people.  It was well worth the wait.  The breakfast was delicious.


On Valentine's Day, we went to see a movie.  We saw "When in Rome."  It was a funny movie.  Afterward, we got a burger from a resaurant that overlooks Union Square.  They gave us a seat next to the window and the view was amazing!  This picture was take from our seat.
