Honeymoon - San Francisco

The second part of our honeymoon was in San Francisco!  On Tuesday, we hit a few wineries on the way out of town then drove to Sausalito to look around and wait for our dinner reservations at Buckeye.  Here are some pictures of Sausalito

Once we had walked around this quiet little harbor town we went to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants, Buckeye Roadhouse.  They have the best oysters called Oyster's Bingo and a dessert that Drew and I are going to try and create at home called Smores Pie.  Amanda and Chris Coble took me here a few years back and I love it!

The only picture we took at Buckeye

Once we finished a wonderful meal we headed to San Francisco and returned our rental car.  From there we took the subway to our hotel which was the Westin on Market Street.

It was pretty late by the time we checked in to the hotel so we got organized and started out fresh the next day. 

Wednesday morning we got up and decided to walk from our hotel to Fisherman's Wharf.  Along the way we stopped and ate breakfast.  The place we stopped at was interesting because I got a pizza with eggs on it.  It was a pretty neat invention....a breakfast pizza.  It was very tasty!!

After breakfast we made it to the Fisherman's Wharf and Drew got to see all the sea lions which you could hear before you could even see them.



From there we walked around the pier and went through all the little shops and watched some of the crazy people putting on shows.  Then we decided to eat again.  Isn't that what trips are for?  Eating?  We decided to eat somewhere that Drew could get the famous dungeness crab.  We ended up eating at the Fog Harbor Fish House.




So you can see the view
After lunch we decided to do a bus tour of the city.  Here are pictures from the tour;


Courthouse

Aquarium

China Town


Coit Tower
 After riding the tour bus for about an hour or so we got off at one of the stops which was Lombardi Street.  We decided to hike the crookest street!  It was quite the haul up that steep steep mountain as Drew would call it! 


After that hike we headed back to the hotel to get ready for our dinner reservations at Fang.  Fang was a wonderful dining experience. 
Cabo to follow soon!

Honeymoon - Wine Country

This post is long over due......so here is the first post of our wonderful honeymoon trip!

We started our honeymoon off by heading to St. Pete for Beth and Jake's Wedding!  We had such a great time with wonderful friends!  Thank you for letting us be a part of your special day!




That Sunday after the wedding we hopped on a plane and headed for San Francisco, CA.  Once we landed and rented a car we headed through the city to Muir Woods National Park to see the Sequoia trees.  We were amazed at the size of the trees.



Once we walk through the national park and got a snack at the little trail cafe we headed to Napa Valley to check into our hotel.  After arriving in Napa and grabbing a bite to eat at a little Mexican restaurant next to our hotel we decided to call it a night so we could head out bright and early the next day.  Here are a few of the wineries we visited. We covered the Russian River Valley, Sonoma and Napa.
