A few weeks ago my love and I flew to San Fran for 4 days to celebrate our 4th Anniversary and Danny's birthday....KID LESS! It was so nice. Sleeping in, people watching at Starbucks, working out together, good food, good wine, good conversation...doesn't that sound like heaven? It was! If you can believe this, Danny and I were both born and raised here and had never been to Frisco. I wanted to do all the touristy stuff like Fisherman's Wharf, Pier 39, Coit Tower, a bay cruise, Lombard Street to name a few. Oh and how could I forget the mall!!! Seriously the best mall I've been to! Too bad my husband couldn't spend 6 hours of shopping and browsing like I could. So that will have to happen on a girls trip....someday?!? We stayed at the Westin Downtown Market Street, loved the location and the hotel was a steal. I let them know it was our anniversary when we checked in and they upgraded us to the 34th floor. We had a corner room and 2 of our walls were floor to ceiling windows with views of downtown, the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. It was a perfect trip. I'm so thankful my mom and sis were kind enough to keep our kiddies for 4 days.

Right when we got there, we walked to the Ferry Building and to happy hour. |

Ferry Building, such a cool place. Loved all the fresh herbs, fish, cheese and flowers |

Date Night...oh that was every night |

A friend told me I had to go to The Buena Vista to go get an Irish Coffee. If you have never had one it's coffee, Irish Whiskey and sugar stirred and topped with a rich cream. So good. It was definitely the first time I've ever had whiskey at 10am. This picture was taken from our seats at the bar. The best seat in the house. We were chatting with the bartender and he had been working there for 38 years. On busy days they make over 2000 Irish Coffees. |

I'm not a huge fan of public breastfeeding but I thought this statue was beautiful! |

Thanks Val for the recommendation on the harbor cruise. We loved it. We went underneath the Golden Gate Bridge and around Alcatraz. Short and sweet but we got to see a ton. |
 |
In the top right hand corner is the famous Lombard Street. |
 |
Coit Tower |
 |
Leaving Coit we walked down 20 minutes worth of stairs through houses on old wooden stairs. The landscape was so lush and gorgeous. |

Isn't he handsome?
Thanks for a wonderful trip babe, I had a fabulous time. |
