San Fran

Well we are having a great time in San Fran. The city is really nice. I think we have pretty much seen most of it. Lets see Saturday we walked all around the park in the city, saw some bison, a x-c meet, sat by a lake and watched people play music. Then we went out to dinner with Doug and Pam Barry, UConn alumns. It was a great time, they drove us all around the city. We went out to a great dinner followed by an even better desert at Gheridelli (sp??) Oh my it was good, so good we went back again yesterday with Rose! She took us to Chrissy Field and we walked around. Dan and I got a ton of National Park stamps for our book! We went to a sourdough bread factory for lunch and I had my first bread bowl....delicious! The night was capped off with a tour of Alcatraz, which was actually very entertaining and we got another stamp. The tour was mostly and audio tour, so you put on your own set of headphones and listened as you walked through the old prision. I thought that was pretty unique. We stayed extra long to go to a privite lecture about the escape from Alcatraz. They guy was so into it and it was pretty creepy being in the prision with not to many peopl in there!

Today we have the wine tour with Dan's uncle! It should be a lot of fun. He is bring us up to the Napa valley to visit a couple of different vinyards.

Tomorrow we are off on our bikes again! I am ready to get moving again, I miss riding and traveling to a new place each night (i know probably 5 min after I am on my bike I'll be thinking something different!)

I'll try and get some pics up here before we leave San Fran!
