San Francisco Zoo

Jerome and Becca invited us to go to the San Francisco Zoo today. Luke and Sierra had a great time with the animals, especially the goats. Check out the slideshow below to see the bears, ducks, and even the squirrel that stole all our food.
This zoo is pretty lame at the moment, they don't have many animals and most of the exhibits seem to be empty or closed -- however, the children's petting area is awesome!
On the way home we stopped to take a stroll on ocean beach.

Sightseeing in SF

We stayed in San Fran after the wedding last night and toured the city with Sharon and Troy today. We got a good view of the Golden Gate from Crissy Field. And, of course, took a couple pictures of Luke.
Natalie showed Luke around the Palace of Fine Arts.Alamo Square...Luke loves the clam chowder bread bowls at Fisherman's Wharf.
And he liked the sea lions at pier 39.Lots of interesting street performers...Luke's favorite was this guy who entertained us while we were waiting in a two hour line for the cable car. He played 'twinkle twinkle little star' and 'itsy bitsy spider' especially for Luke and they were the only songs he got applause from the crowd for.
Everyone on the cable car...
We rode past Lombard street and an Obama appearance on our ride from Ghirardelli Square to Sutter & Powell.
More pics...

Video: Bonds up to bat on his birthday

Foul ball by Barry Bonds. Check out the camera flashes and the ball boy.

Giants vs. Braves: 13 innings


We were hoping Bonds would hit his 754th home run tonight on his 43rd birthday. He had 5 at bats, but unfortunately no home runs. Giants were down 4-0 in the 9th inning when we left, then of course they came back to tie it up and send the game to extra innings. We tried Caltrain for the first time to get to the game and back from Mountain View and it worked out great, very convenient. We even got home in time to watch the 13th inning.

Jason and Audrey were able to accompany us this time and Jason ate a large polish dog.

Giants vs. Padres


The Giants lost in extra innings, but at least we had good company for the Game Tuesday night. The big stat of the night was the Giants leaving 22 men on base(!) -- twice leaving the bases loaded without scoring a run. The other impressive stat was Mike eating 532 sunflower seeds.

San Francisco View

Natalie and I stopped by here on the way back home from Meganfest. Nice view--and that bridge in the background is pretty cool too.

Full House

Remember this view from that old show "Full House"? I picked up Natalie after a conference in San Francisco and couldn't resist stopping by Alamo Square for this view...

Blue Angels in San Francisco

Trekked all over San Francisco with Natalie's family, from Pier 39, to the park in the pic below, to Ghirardelli Square. The ride to SF from Sac was hilarious in the rented minivan with Grandma Dede and Pops. And we even got to see the Blue Angels fly around the bay.
