some SF pics...

I don't even remember you taking that picture! (why does my arm look so deformed )

The exploratorium is FUN! We've been a bunch of times (The Palace of Fine Arts is where our SF reshoot was - did you recognize it?)

glad you enjoyed SF and the PCH drive!

Nice pics! You guys looked cold

Thanks for sharing

Great pics! I loved SF when we visited....the next thing I want to do is head down PCH - I'm sure the views are absolutely gorgeous

That must have been so much fun to meet up with Lisa and her DH!

Erica - that reminds me, have you ever been to the other SD Zoo? The one where the animals roam free? The name is escaping me right now....

Erica, between your FM and these pics...you're making me homesick! Looks like you guys had a blast! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

It looks so beautiful there! It's definitely on my list of places to go!

Teri...Wild Animal Park...we haven't been there yet...we're lazy...I haven't been to the zoo yet either...(well since I was a kid) I'll keep those open for when we have visiters


Shamma...these pics aren't much better from the last I wouldn't post...since we were in a car for a while...but I did it for you...


Lisa...I didn't realize that was the same!! I loved your pics...I am going to have to hire a photog to take pictures of us there when we go back...and thats for telling me...John thought it had to be something besides the exploratarium...do you know if it was built specifically for the museum?

Palace of Fine Arts

Built for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition in 1915 from a design by architect Bernard R. Maybeck, the Palace of Fine Arts is one of the few standing remnants of the fair. Origionally constructed largely of stucco and chicken wire, the ruins fulfilled their destiny by the '50s, becoming a crumbly mass of decay. But the people of San Francisco decided to keep & rebuild the imposing structure which, over time, held art exhibitions, telephone books, and army jeeps.

There is a scene in 'The Rock' that Sean Connery meets his daughter under the rotunda...I always think that scene is made more 'special' just be the surroundings!

ETA: While DH and I were living near SF, we'd often see weddings taking place under the rotunda also...it makes for a very dramatic 'gazebo'
