SF'09 - Sights To See

On Monday morning we met the crew at Pinehurst for breakfast and then went back to the hotel to pack and get checked out. It was a fairly uneventful day, but we had fun sightseeing after we left the Drake. We started off at Lombard Street. I really thought it would be longer and steeper, but it was cool, nonetheless. Check it out if you ever go to San Fran. Definitely worth seeing!After Lombard Street we headed over to Grace Cathedral. The place is huge and absolutely gorgeous. I'm not sure what the story is behind it, but you can ask someone...Noelle and Rose making themselves dizzy trying to get through the maze. They both made it out alive!A fountain in the courtyard of the church and some flowers from the garden

From there we went back to get our luggage and headed for the BART. And that, my friends, concludes the San Fran trip. Stay tuned for San Diego!

I miss San Francisco! And the crooked road used to make me a bit queezy. Lols... I love that picture of the rose you have up there. It's sooo pretty.

I grew up near SF and went there at least once a week. I miss it. Looks like you actually had some nice weather. You may not have as much luck in San Diego. Hasn't been very nice down here.
