A few more things to share that we liked from our trip out to the Bay Area. (Hope you don't mind a picture heavy post!)
Waves! Really big and noisy ones!
Interesting birds along the shore - many different kinds! Can you see the long beak? The bird on the right had his pushed all the way down into the sand. I wonder what sandy creature he was after?!
A winery cat! Very friendly, and also very interested in our picnic lunch!
There was a Trader Joe's near our hotel that we walked by every day, and I remembered Sandra of mmmquilts recommending these tasty treats, so when I saw them there I had to try them. Let's just say it's a good thing there isn't a Trader Joe's near my home!
I liked having my hexie project along with me, although I only sewed on them a little bit. I realized that the hotel rooms we were in didn't have a comfy seat for sewing in that I'm used to at home.
Cable cars
Trolley
We enjoy riding any kind of mass transit when we're in a big city and we spent one day in San Francisco doing just that!
The big red and white boat took us for a cruise around the San Francisco Bay, and under the Golden Gate Bridge, which we had never done before and really enjoyed.
Mike loves the Golden Gate Bridge and we have seen it from many different spots, photographed it from many angles, and of course, driven over it.
But this experience was pretty neat!
Thanks for visiting today! Don't forget to check out the I Like Thursday bloggers over at Not Afraid of Color!
Great pics. One time when I was in SF we caught the Ferry from Vallejo it was so cool .
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip and such great photos! I love your photo of the bridge--wow! Have a great week and welcome home :)
ReplyDeleteLooks a very fun trip. Hope you got all the post trip stuff handled and can settle back into your sewing room.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun trip, I've been to San Fran several times, love the Fishermans Warf and the seafood!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous pix, so glad you shared the with us. Did you spot any whales?
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had such a fun trip! I love the winery cat- he looks like he's about to make friends. And I too love trader joe's treats. My favorite used to be their chocolate orange sticks but they don't have those anymore. I have to resist going by the one in our city- at least it isn't someplace I drive past routinely!
ReplyDeleteI want to go!!!! How fun was that! And the winery cat, "may I interest you in our new MiceWine?"
ReplyDeleteHi Diann! Wow - beautiful pictures you are sharing with us today. Yum - those TJ dark chocolate peanut butter cups look and sound delicious! I could sit and watch the waves hit the stones and shore for hours. What a friendly kitty cat at the winery - I'll bet he gets lots of attention that way. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteI just bought those PB cups. Didn't last long. :-) Waves! Cute winery cat. Lovely pics - looks like a fun time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great trip in my favorite city. Thanks for sharing such great photos. I can almost smell and taste the food we had on Fisherman's Wharf.
