My parents came to visit last week and we had a such a great time! It's really fun showing people around this city- San Francisco shows itself off very well. I also feel like just enough of a local to give tours to people but I still enjoy doing touristy stuff because it's all relatively new to me too. It's the perfect spot in which to be! Here's a rundown of some of the things we did:
- Had cocktails at the 'Top of the Mark'- the Mark Hopkins Hotel. An amazing view of the city and the fog swirling in
- Ate breakfast everywhere
- Ate lunch in Sausalito, explored the Bay Model (a building sized model of the estuary around San Francisco), looked at tons of sailboats (a huge hit with my dad)
- Found an apartment for me and Liz!!
- Explored the De Young museum and some of Golden Gate Park
- Took a freezing cold tour of Angel Island and a much warmer audio tour of Alcatraz
- Drank lots of wine
- Had great talks, laughs, and hugs
And last, but not least, is a picture from freezing cold Angel Island:
