San Francisco

A few weeks ago, we headed up to Stanford University for a track meet that Tommy needed to film for his new website. Since we were so close and Jena had never been to San Francisco we made a quick trip there on Saturday morning. We tried to cram in as much as possible in the little time that we had. So, first we crossed the Golden Gate Bridge.

Lyla needed her picture with the bridge, also.



We looked out at Alcatraz Island.



Next, we went to Fisherman's Wharf and ate chowder, then headed over to look at the seals.

High on Tommy's list was taking Jena to Ghiardelli's ice cream shop. We all enjoyed the Gold Rush. Vanilla ice cream, peanut butter, and hot fudge.


Later that afternoon we arrived at Stanford for the track meet. This press conference was held after the American record in the 10,000 meter was set. Tommy is the tall one in the back holding the camera over his head.


The girl that is in third place with the orange shoes is Barbra. She's a running friend of Tommy's. She has run in the Olympics. (She did not win this race!)

We also took a trip down the crooked street, walked around Pier 39 and spent a lot of time in traffic. Quick trip, but fun!
