Leaving Seattle Arriving SF Photos

We had a cramping call for a few days in SF.  So here are some pictures of our departure from Seattle and of San Francisco.  First step was taking the ferry through the fog.



Eventually, we were above the Seattle clouds and flying past Mt. St. Helens.  It's been a forty years since she erupted.




And soon we were flying past San Francisco and looping back into the airport.  This view is from the west with the Golden Gate bridge barely visible at the bottom left.


We BARTED into town and had a great Mediterranean lunch




Today we bused with the kids to the Children's Creativity Museum, a great place for kids.  On the way we passed the cable car turning around.  







"One of the finest street clocks in America"














And here's the clock.  It didn't seem to be working.













The park near the museum is in a canyon surrounded by buildings, and has a waterfall







The kids had a great time at the museum and I couldn't get them from the first floor activities.  The little one had a crying meltdown on the way home.  But she held my hand and kept walking.  Getting really tired.  On the bus she continued until I started telling her the story about the little girl who cried so loud on the bus that it hurt other people's ears.  And that her tears flooded the bus.

    1. You need to get the grandkids' opinion. Did you read the later post where one said I was annoying? And I didn't mention here the littlest one's nickname - yucky grandpa,
