two week's later i'm finally getting around to uploading my babymoon pics from our recent trip to San Francisco. it's been one of those month's. anyways, we had a great time in good ole San Fran, with tons of walking, beautiful weather, and an untimely visit during the World Series in which my most HATED team, the Giants, was contending for baseball's greatest honor. let's just say i never want to find myself in a bar during a SF World Series again.
i've had some questions from people as to what exactly a babymoon is. i just think of it as the last hoo-rah of a trip before the wee baby arrives. we may do some other weekenders before then, but this was our specific trip dedicated to the last 7 years of marriage, sans children. sure, i would have loved to take 2 weeks off and go to the Caribbean, but who has time for that?
we decided to splurge a little and stayed at the Mark Hopkins InterContinental Hotel, a historic hotel that managed to survive the great San Francisco earthquake and fire.
it was a beautiful old hotel (with tiny elevators!) and we had a great view.
somehow we managed to avoid the typical San Francisco fog for the entire trip. we had an amazing (albeit LONG) walk from our hotel to Pier 33 to catch our boat to Alcatraz! I don't know what it is, but i LOVE the Rock. i could spend hours over there. i love the history. here are some of my favorite pics:
after quite the day of walking, we didn't feel like going crazy for dinner. so we headed to Morton's, a few blocks away and were back in the hotel by 7:30. we had to force ourselves to stay awake! it was awesome begin able to go to bed early and then lay around the next morning. i'm sure i will miss those days when Little Wood is here.
we relaxed on Sunday until our flight left. unfortunately we were stuck in the airport JUST long enough for the Giants to clinch the World Series title. blah. anyways, that was our trip!
