San Francisco recap

We're back from San Francisco! It wasn't exactly a vacation - Isaac was out there to work, but we really did a lot while we were there. During the days, Isaac would work while I explored the city with Aaron, and at night, we met up with friends or family for dinner. Over the weekend, my family joined us from NJ and we celebrated my cousin's wedding with my extended family - most of whom I hadn't seen in 14 years.

Here are some highlights from our trip:

father's day brunch


relaxing and zoning out with US Weekly


Just after having his first solid meal


Enjoying the king bed - much roomier than his crib!


An example of one of the many hills I unnecessarily pushed the stroller up. After the trip where I pushed Aaron up three hills like this and then down one very steep hill to get where I needed to go, I wised up and consulted Google Maps (in Terrain view).




This was helpful, but could've used more detail. Maybe hills don't look very steep according to this map, but try pushing a stroller up them in 90-something degree weather! (It was unusually hot while we were there)

I think Aaron enjoys being out, but he's way too young to appreciate most of the touristy things we did. He definitely enjoyed playing in our hotel room though.
