Yes it does!!!! The cool weather is ok.....especially since we're reading about the heatwave back home!!! lol Waving back at you Michele!! :wave2:
 

Day 3 started good but I'm pretty sure we will skip San Francisco from now on. Not my cup of tea with the massive amount of people.......blech!! The wharf/pier area was wall to wall people and we couldn't wait to get back to the motel. Tomorrow is an easy day and also going to do some laundry when we arrive in Gilroy......since right after this picture~~~



Addy puked......... :crazy2:

Off to rest for the evening!!!


 
oh man sorry to hear that the city was a pain. Yes it can get really crowded down there esp on Pier 39 and esp during the summer. It's too bad cuz it can be a really nice area if you go at an off time. I don't like the wharf because it is so touristy and kind of tacky. We usually only go down there to see the water and the sea lions but we love Golden Gate Park and some other areas in the city. But like any big cities you get dirty areas and bums etc so you have to take that with a grain of salt.

What happened to Addy? Is she sick or just her lunch didn't agree with her?

How was your lunch by the way? I've never heard of that place and don't really ever get to Santa Rosa but it might be a fun place to go if it's good.

We are always looking for fun things to do that are around here for day or weekend trips.

I hope you enjoy the Disney museum and have a better day today!

We didn't even see the sea lions....that's how crowded things were. We were able to get to the water at the very end of Pier 39 and then we walked on the backside of the shops & were able to walk easily and nicely (probably should have done that to get to the carousel in the first place....lol)

Not sure what caused Addy to get sick. She was fine, got upset and then threw up. We thought it was from being upset or excited (my kids tend to throw up when excited) but then she did it again before leaving the pier area. She did fine last night......(at least I think she did....no one came to our room to tell us otherwise).....we'll see how it goes today.

I believe Guy is from Santa Rosa & this Johnny Garlic's was his first restaurant before hitting it big by winning the Next Food Network Star (2nd season). I really enjoyed it.....Mike enjoyed it as well but said it wouldn't be enough of a reason to make a special trip just to eat there. Now, if you wanted to combine it with a trip to the Charles M Schulz Museum, then it would be. The girls could even ice skate at the Schulz campus!!

Well time to get everyone up & moving........Disney Family Museum this morning!!
 
The wharf and Pier 39 areas are always busy. Especially on weekends. The people in the valley want to enjoy the cool weather.


I hope Addy felt better this morning.
 
Oh no!! :scared1: I hope she's doing okay. I'm having trouble recognizing which twin is which.

She felt fine, thanks.

She's OK today.

Michayla is smaller (at least 12lbs) and is in her adaptive stroller a lot of the time. Shy occasionally has glasses on.

So glad to hear it! It is never fun to be sick on vacation.
 
Day Four is over and other than the "older kids" causing a few hiccups, it was a pretty good day. Saw the Disney Family Museum, went swimming and ate lots of BBQ.





 
Day 5 found us in the car.....a lot! We did Monterey Bay Aquarium before driving 7ish hours to Anaheim. We did make it and are now settled in to our rooms for the next 5 nights!!





 
Yay glad you can take a break for a few days. Have a GREAT time at Disney!
 
Day Six (day one of Disneyland) was a good one (and a long one). We spent the whole day at Disneyland with a dinner break in DTD. Tomorrow we'll spend the day at California Adventure.





 
EEEEKKKK!!! I am getting soo excited for our trip!! We are in the single digits now!! Come on July 25th
