Wow, 10 years! Yes, it's been that long.

Yeah, so Kril and I have been married for 10 years. Can you believe it? I thought about spending time scanning wedding photos and posting those pics and saying mushy stuff about him but instead I'll chat about our vacation. Occasionally, we take a long weekend trip to Chicago and South Bend to see Notre Dame play, but we've never had a good vacation. So we figured that after 10 years, it was time. San Francisco was our 2nd choice. Europe was first, but we'll need to save up some more before that trip. Here's a short list of the stuff we did in no particular order.

1. Fisherman's Wharf- sea lions, Boudin Sourdough Bakery (YUMMY clam chowder in bread bowls), walkin' around
2. Bay Cruise to Golden Gate Bridge and around Alcatraz
3. A day in Sausalito
4. Chinatown
5. The Academy of Sciences museum - this was very cool
6. nice dinner at The Franciscan
7. another nice dinner at Le Colonial and drinks at Bourbon and Branch
8. Sadly watching The Texas Rangers lose to The Giants - but a VERY cool stadium with fantastic food!

This is a picture of the lobby of our hotel, The Fairmont. Definitely one of the nicest I've stayed at by far.
Us at the Rangers game. It was pretty dang cold but they had awesome garlic fries. Yum!

The best view I've ever had at a ballpark. Kril picked the best seats with a view of the bay, sailboats and all.Chinatown. There was so much Hello Kitty stuff, Kiera would have gone nuts.A tree outside the museum. I've heard the trees in the Muir Woods (sp?) are much much bigger, but this one impressed me. A fabulous cafe we ate at in Sausalito. It was owned and run by Italians, so the food was excellent and the cappucino was the best I've ever had. And that's saying a lot. I'm picky about my espresso.In Sausalito with San Francisco far behind us across the water.
By the cafe.The view outside our window at night.Kril holding up Alcatraz. How in the heck is he doing that?!!??I actually got some impressive shots of the bridge as we going under it. This was one of my favorites. Its too bad it was overcast that day.Its not windy or anything.Awwwww. Look we're almost matching in our fleeces. How cute are we.Lombard Street. AKA "The Crookedest Street". See the cars winding back and forth. The stinky sea lions at Pier 39. Man, all those guys do is sleep. Lazy!

Looks like you had fun. Kril never mentioned anything about holding up Alcatraz. you would think he would say something.

He also mentioned how awesome everything was except the rangers losing and your night out on the town with ACU
