San Francisco

Sophia at the gate of China Town

Yes, it was named after me and my hubby :)

she is adorable right?

In one of the art galleries there was a giant cake and dress ups where they let you take pictures. We were the only ones in there. It was great. Every girls dream come true.

It was unseasonably warm and we had a good time at the beach one afternoon

So my sister TL and my niece Sophia had a trip planned to visit us in CA. Then we moved..... They still had there plane tickets and decided to hit up San Francisco anyway! I was lucky enough to go back and enjoy the city with them thanks to TaraLynn! It was SOOO much fun!! We seriously had a blast! I have been there a few other times this summer, but it was different staying in the city. I loved it!! We explored Hayes Valley, which had the cutest shops and best food ever, and it was a lot less touristy than some other areas of the city. Also we went into North Beach which is a little Italy that is adorable (also good food there!). We of course went to fishermans wharf and did all the stuff there and had some incredible sea food! Probably the most fun was when we went to the exploritorium which is a hands on kid museum, which was also a blast for adults! There was this thing called the tactile dome and you go in and its completely pitch black. You have to feel your way around crawling through tunnels, rooms, and sliding down slides. It was awesome! We really had a great time! It was a needed break from the boredom of Indiana!
