Whirlwind in San Francisco

I'm back from my hiatus from blogging....I've been lazy and busy with work since I returned from the west coast....but here is a quick little blurb about my trip to San Francisco and a bunch of pictures. There's not much to say because I was in the city for less than 24 hours.

Here we go:

So after our trip to Lake Tahoe we drove back to San Francisco on the Sunday night so Pat could attend a conference and I could fly back to Beantown.

That night we stayed at the Fairmont and it was beautiful. There were two parts to the hotel, the tower and the main building. We stayed in the main building, which is the original part of the hotel. Our room was great and our bathroom was massive. I love the Fairmont beds so much! They are so soft and comfy. Pat on the other hand, doesn't like them so much.

The next morning (Monday), we got up early so Pat could give me the quick tour of SF because I have never been. After getting breakfast we hoped on a cable car and made our way to Fisherman's Wharf and Ghirardelli Square.

We got off the cable car at Lombard Street.  This street is also known as the "crookedest" street, since it is has many curves going down a steep hill.  The view from the top of this street is pretty amazing! After Lombard St. we walked to Ghirardelli Square.

After Ghirardelli Square we made our way to Fisherman's Wharf.

After my quick little tour we had lunch and then we headed back to the hotel on the cable car to get my luggage. I had to catch my flight at 2pm and Pat had to get to his conference. So after picking up my luggage we parted ways :(

I headed back to Boston and the next morning I woke up sick! If you read my prior Tahoe post....getting sick was the icing on the cake. bahhh

Hopefully my life will become a little more interesting this week, so I have something to blog about...haha
