Hello from San Francisco! We rolled in a few hours ago and our Air BnB has smokin’ fast WiFi, so a blogging we will go!

We started our trip in dairy style – the Tillamook Cheese Factory!   

And would it be a legit family vacation without some currency destroying? I think not… Then off to a lighthouse for some whale watching.

    
 We watched…no whales. Oh well. Better luck at the next stop – a hike! (Aka a “leisurely nature walk” since The Girl is suspicious of the “H” word.)   (Yep – we went all the way up there)

    
     Tuesday was more nature walks, except this time on the beach and with the redwoods!   

    
    
 (Sorry, out of order – the app is rudimentary. And spacing issues. Oy.)
Today was mostly driving. The Girl loves driving! Give her Mom Teddy, some tunes, and some scenery, and she’s happy for hours.   
The Boy prefers to ignore ancient trees in favor of movies on his phone.

 But we drag him out for touristy things as necessary.

 
Now we’ve moved from the country to the city – cable cars and Fisherman’s Wharf and Alcatraz, here we come!
