This started as a place to share our road trip to visit friends and family. I have enjoyed sharing our adventures I have decided to continue writing about our lives and adventures. Check back often to see what we are up to.

Valentines Day in the Bay

We woke up early this morning to meet Irene for coffee. Wish my Uncle Steve could have come with her but I am glad he is resting and getting better.
Glad to leave the motel. Not a great place but then what do you expect for 33.00 a night. Glad I brought my own sheets. We met Irene in Montclaire right by Piedmont where she and Uncle Steve live. It was wonderful to see her.
Then off to meet Ray and Martha for a fun day in San Francisco. I had no clue what we were doing but it is always fun to let the day unfold itself. We were going to go to the Academy of Arts and Sciences but no parking so on to plan B. It turned out to be even better. Great way to spend Valentines Day. Then off to an amazing dinner on the other side of the Golden Gate bridge.
Finally we checked into our next hotel. Yep much better. The Embassy Suites in Walnut Creek. Looking forward to a comfy night in a nice place. So much better than the night before. Gotta love a 180.00 a night room when we got it for 64.00. :)

Foggy as we head towards San Francisco.


Great coffee with a super cool lady


Would not be a trip with Ray and Martha without first a trip to Starbucks


Such a pretty view


Such a cute couple


Yep we spent V-tines Day looking at pretty sparkly things. So cool


Derek trows some coins into the fountain for good luck


Yep a short snack in the car watching the sun over the Pacific


Crossing the Golden Gate bridge to go to dinner. Super yummy food


Another very cute couple and amazing friends


Yep great room, comfortable bed and even a living room. Time to snuggle down for a good sleep

Tomorrow we head up the coast.
