It cracked us up that the playground in Alamo Square had little Painted Ladies, too!
Beautiful fountain in Alamo Square right across from the Painted Ladies.
After walking around the houses and enjoying the rest of the neighborhood, we went back to the harbor and ate sushi while filling out postcards for our family.
YUM!!
Once our postcards were in the mailbox, we got back in the car and waved goodbye to San Francisco
and drove across the Golden Gate Bridge
Kind people at the church we had visited on Sunday told us how to find the picture-taking spot on the other side of the bridge, so we got out of the car in Marin County and walked back across the bridge (just to say we had) :-)
It was just a little windy!
Pretty view on the Marin side looking over the gate
It was just a gorgeous day! I loved the colors.
Jesse was being goofy around the control box
Who's that good looking guy?
Still walking across the bridge...
Jesse was excited that someone had already marked his place for him
It was fun to walk past so many people who were doing the same thing.
Can you really feel like an adventurer when walking across the Golden Gate Bridge?
Maybe :-)
One of the most exciting things was that some dolphins put on a show for us. We have about 60 pictures that look exactly like this one.
We also saw pelicans, sea lions, and a whale. It was so much fun!
And the rarest of all sea creatures, the helicopter.

Back across, victorious, wind-blown, and...apparently sideways.

Hello, Jesse!
We had a wonderful time in San Francisco!
Now off to winetasting in Napa!
We enjoy Beringer wines at home, so when we decided to try wine tasting in Napa, Jesse was very excited to find that we could go on a relatively inexpensive tour of the Beringer Winery.
It was absolutely beautiful!
The Beringer Brothers Estate greets you as you drive in.
Our tour guide took us to one of the vineyards.
This is the vineyard for sauvignon blanc grapes.
Sampling some wine
Baby grapes!
Rows and rows of grapes. So pretty!

Heading in to the wine cellar and tasting room
It smelled so good in here, and was so nice and cool. Very refreshing after the heat outside!
Tasting Room
Sampling merlot straight from the barrel
We enjoyed our first wine tasting tour!
Here is a list of what we got to try
So glad we didn't have to pay for all of that!
We had a lot of fun on our wine tour. We'll look forward to doing something like that again!
