Ryan and I went to San Jose/San Francisco from Wed June 13th through Saturday June 16th. Madelyn stayed with my parents. We all had a great time!
Ryan had a business appointment in San Fran so I decided to tag along so we could take a mini vacation. We had a lot of fun and packed a lot of things into our few days in California.
When we arrived on Wed we drove to Stanford and walked around the campus. It is beautiful! What a picture perfect campus. Then on Thursday Ryan had his audit so I scheduled a day at the spa. It was wonderful! I'm glad I did a little research ahead of time because I learned I could go early and stay after my massage.....just hanging out in the spa. So awesome to kick back, totally relax and get away from the real world for a few hours. I met up with Ryan after he was done and we drove to Monterey. We drove through the Pebble Beach golf course and got some great views & pics of the ocean. It is simply breathtaking. We continued to Carmel where we ate dinner and spent the evening. Another fun place with shops and cool things to see.
On Friday we made our way to San Francisco. We started the day at Muir Forest. We could have spent the entire day there, hiking and looking at the beautiful Redwoods. Then we went to Sausalito for lunch. One of my co-workers recommended a burger joint and we were not disappointed. We walked along the main street where were tons of shops and places to eat. It was a gorgeous day so that made it even better! Then in the afternoon/evening we went to Fisherman's Wharf, Pier 39 and walked along the beach to the Golden Gate Bridge.
Then it was time to come home. It felt like everything we did we could have spent the day doing but we were glad to be able to experience so many things in the short amount of time. We had a great trip and it was nice to get away and spend time, just the two of us. Of course we missed Madelyn and couldn't wait to get home to see her!
