San Francisco and Padrinho

Today we went to San Francsico. We left here at 8:30 in the morning and got back about 7. We went so that we would not look like a tourists showing tourists around. We took the BART to Civic center and then got on a bus to Golden Gate Park. The park is about 3 miles long and 1.5 miles wide. We walked a good portion of it. We then got on a bus to go to the Palace of Fine arts and the explortorm ( we did not go inside). That bus had a stop right next to the Golden Gate. When we got to the Palace we sat by the lake there and took notes on our experience thus far. Then we got just a little lost finding the next bus to catch(yet another reason we went) to go to Fisherman's Wharf. We ate at the Rain forest cafe. The Cafe looked just like a rain forest, but there food was a bit pricey. Then we walked to Pier 39 and to St. Peter and Paul Church (We passed Lombard St. along the way). Then we had 2 more stops to make but Marco had a accident leading us to go home a little earlier then planned. We didn't take any pictures because I did not want to spoil the surprise for my cousins and not to mention I forgot my camera.
Liliana had stayed with her grandparents at home. We regretted not taking her, yet we didn't know where we were going or where we could change her so it was best that she stayed, much to my dismay. This was the first time in 9 months that I had left her behind other than at the sitters. They had a great time with her though , and I called in about 400 times to check on her!!

Then we got home and had dinner as a WHOLE family. Yes Padrinho was home for dinner. He is too cute, he is this big mucho man, but when it comes to Lili, she has him wrapped around his finger. She was a little cranky and he asked to hold her. He was too cute, we were eating pizza and he would take a bite and give her a small piece to eat, it was just adorable and of course I had nooo camera! He is too cute with her!!
