Flashback: San Francisco

{Chartering a private sailboat through the Bay provided a unique perspective of the Golden Gate Bridge.}

The second leg of our California road trip (click here to see Napa Valley) was San Francisco.

In spite of being colder and foggier than I planned, I thoroughly enjoyed this segment of the trip.

We saw city highlights like Pier 39 and Alcatraz, shopped in the famous fashion district, ate truly delicious cupcakes at Kara's, and still managed to squeeze in an award-winning musical.

San Fran was not as relaxing as Napa, but it compensated with a truly amazing atmosphere.

{The landscaping on Lombard was incredible.  I've never seen so many beautiful plants and flowers!}

{We alloted a night to see Wicked at the Orpheum.  What a phenomenal theatre/show!}

{After our sailboat tour, a seal pup beckoned us back to shore.}

{Since half our trip was spent in foggy conditions, this is the best Golden Gate Bridge snapshot we could get. :( }

{I've never seen so many Louboutins as I did shopping Union Square!}
