BOSTON

This year for Christmas Logans dad gave everyone in the family a paid trip to Boston to watch him run the Boston Marathon for his 20th time. 
It was a bit of a stressful start. Long story short our flight got canceled.  There was absolutely no way of getting to Boston on time for our Red Sox game the next day,  so we ended up having to switch to Delta, and Larry had to fork out $1200 more dollars.  Everything ended up working out fine. 

On our first day in Boston we walked the Freedom Trail, ate at Quincy Market, went to a Red Sox game, and had dinner at Legal Seafood.

Sunday Linda and I went shopping all day while everyone else was at church, and driving the marathon trail.  

Monday was the Boston Marathon, and we had a spa night at the hotel.  

Tuesday we did some more shopping, and walked to the top of the  bunker hill tower (275 steps) before hitting the airport.

 
Boston is such a beautiful, quaint city.  It is an entirely different experience from San Fran.

SAN FRANCISCO

Last year over spring break we were on our honeymoon.  We decided this year we should go somewhere to celebrate our 1 year anniversary, even though it landed a month later this year.  We decided to go to San Francisco.  Logan hadn't been since he was young, and I had never been, but one of my good friends Sammy lived there for about 2 years and convinced me I needed to go!

Our plane landed at about 11 on Friday.  We took the BART to Union Square, where we were staying, took a quick power nap, and then we were off.  

 


























First we headed over to Haight Ashbury and did some shopping.  I was really surprised by how much luck I had shopping there.  I loved all of the stores and the prices were actually not bad at all.  That night we had dinner at the Cheese Cake Factory on the top of the Macey's building at Union Square, and the view was amazing.  

 

Saturday was a busy day.  We got up early and went to the San Fran street market at the Ferry Building.  We enjoyed some delish breakfast while we were there.  I had Fresh Strawberry's and Ricotta, Poppy seed Macaroons, and blood orange cake.  

After breakfast we walked down the boardwalk to pier 33 where we left for the Alcatraz cruise.  

I LOVED the tour it was super interesting, and if you have seen the movie with Clint Eastwood it is EXACTLY how it looks in the movie.  

After visiting Alcatraz we walked down to the Exploratorium as requested by Logan.  

This is a picture of Logan with his mind being blown, (notice the giant red wood in the background).

After our busy day we were exausted. We got an Uber, picked up some Chipotle, and literally ate it in bed, and slept.   

Later that night we went to Fisherman's Warf for dinner.  I can't remember where we ate but they had amazing fresh seafood, and sourdough bread.  

Sunday we had Breakfast at Mel's Drive-in, which was really yummy.  Then we went to Ghirardelli Square and had sundae's

After that we went on a walk down the Pier and got a few pics with the Golden Gate Bridge.  

The best thing ever though was getting home to my pup pup I missed her sooo much! This is her and Logan crashed on the coach after we got home.
