San Francisco!!

Dave and I got to go to San Francisco this past week. Dave had a class he took for some software he uses at work and so I just went with him. It was a blast!! Even if now I am feeling completely overwhelmed with things I didn't do while I was gone, it was worth it. :) We went to a Giants-Rockies game, did a little sightseeing, went to a Ben Harper concert, and pretty much just had a great time!

This is Dave before we even left our house. He was a little excited. :)
I totally want to learn to windsurf or kitesurf now!!


Yes, those are surfers, and yes those are giant, jagged rocks that they are riding the waves into... super smart.





I told him to make a crazy pose and this is what I got. Whoa. Don't hurt yourself.




This is McCovey Cove. It is just outside the Giant's ballpark. People wait in their kayaks/other floatation devices for homerun balls to be hit into the water. There have been 50 homeruns hit into the water since they built the park.










Our sad faces after the game because the Giants lost. It was a heartbreaker, lost it in the bottom of the ninth.



The amazing Ben Harper... so good!




The concert was at the Fox Theatre in Oakland. That place is amazing! You should probably go there for a concert if you ever have a chance.
Anyway, that was our fun week. Next post will probably be about our marathon... yikes!! Pray for us. By the way, our "qualifying for Boston" goal is out the window. Our new goals: Plan A- to finish under 4 hours, Plan B- to finish period.

Looks like you had a blast! San Fran has a lot of stuff happening and it would appear you took advantage of some of the best.
Good luck with the marathon. I figure it's a marathon for me to get up and run in the morning before school. It makes me tired just thinking about you doing 26 miles... I better go have a lie down....

What a trip!! San Fran is such a fun place to visit. My sister used lived there. I wish I'd gone to a Giants game! Baseball is so much better live.
