Since we went to Utah for the wedding in December, we missed our traditional anniversary trip. I surprised John with an overnighter in San Francisco after we got back to celebrate belatedly.
I picked John up from work Friday afternoon for what he thought was a movie and we drove up to our hotel (the Van Ness Inn, which I chose based on its short distance to Ghirardelli Square). We walked to dinner at the Buena Vista Cafe and shared a Ghriardelli sundae. Then Saturday morning we tried the Cliff House for breakfast, which was delicious.
We walked around the Sutro baths next door.
And Land's End.
It was too sunny for a good picture, but we tried.
It was fun walking trails just the two of us.
Then we took a bay cruise, which John had never done. We learned a lot about the city and enjoyed the views and beautiful weather. Then we walked past all the piers to have lunch at Gott's and picked up some treats at Miette's for Karen and Alan, who were babysitting for us.
Next year when Perry's older we're hoping to go on a longer trip, but a quick over-nighter this year was perfect. It's refreshing to have an extended break from kids and responsibilities and take time to reconnect with each other.
