This past week Amanda came out to visit us from Utah. We could not have asked for nicer weather in the bay area as we enjoyed exploring sites such as Fisherman's Wharf, Pier 39, Ghirardelli Square, Alcatraz, Coit Tower, Lombard Street, Ocean Beach, Union Square, China Town, Shopping in Walnut Creek, the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz, driving up the One and getting some great sunset photos along the coast. Weary, week and even a bit sunburned, we still managed to squeeze in a Dungeness Crab dinner along the wharf on Amanda's last night in town and the Golden Gate bridge on our way to the airport the next afternoon. Amanda and I even got to have a "Girls Night" out while Jon watched the kids... okay, by the time we got home from Santa Cruz it was too late for a pedicure, but we did get to have dinner at P.F. Chang’s where Rob Thomas the lead singer of Matchbox Twenty was sitting a few tables away... our waitress was very excited. We hope that Amanda will be able to come back for another visit soon, there is so much left to see and do.
