Exploring San Francisco with the boys - Day 1

Right after school ended for the winter break, I took two of my grandchildren to San Francisco. We had 3 fun-filled days... of children's activities... Such fun.

We started with an overnight here at home. Izzy and Mikey spent Sunday night all set for adventure in San Francisco. They kept telling me they love staying in hotels... so they were looking forward to a hotel stay.

This is Mikey waking up on Monday morning - happily anticipating the San Francisco get-away. Izzy still snoozed away.

We got ready after breakfast and headed to the city. Here we are at check-in at the Marriott.

Country bunkins or what? LOL ... Auntie Tracey who loves these boys came along. She is a gem!

After check in we shopped for a little bit. Finding out that there was a pool, we had to get swim trunks for the boys. Unfortunately none were available at the stores we went to... so we picked up what we thought would work for a short dip at the pool. Oh, and the boys picked up one toy too... Ben Ten - whoever he is... :)

Mikey who protested that "People do not wear belts in the water!" gave in and played in the pool for a bit.

Izzy had a great time...

After the pool session, we rested for a bit and headed to Union Square as I wanted to see the tree... We used to go to the Tree Lighting the day after Thanksgiving... when the children were little, my children that is....

For dinner we headed to the Burger Bar... because I have not been there before... Here is a look at the menu... now wonder I had not visited it before... and no I did not order this one -

I will do a separate post on Burger Bar later....but we ordered this sliders for the kids...$12... tiny burgers... which they did not really eat---

... maybe because they had this decadent milkshake delivered prior to the sliders... but hey we only live once, right?

Back to the hotel after dinner but first a little playtime at the Ferrari store...

This was before they told me "No Pictures!" Izzy loved riding the mini version at the store... one can get one for $5,000. Nice toy. :)

Before heading for bed, the boys made a list of what they wanted to do the next day... :)

Children's museum tomorrow - or says the list . :)
