Day ?- Lake Tahoe and San Francisco

We did a drive around the lake the other day and it was beautiful!

 We've had nothing but blue skies the whole time we've been here. The temps have been in the low 70's for the past week! It's a big change from just down the mountain in Reno where it has been like 90 degrees.

Since we have a few more days off of work, we went to San Francisco and San Mateo, California. We saw where Elliott grew up, Burlingame, Foster City and San Mateo. We ate at his favorite sandwich shop, Mr. Pickles and then did a quick drive through the town. We went to a grocery store called Drager's where Cait was in cookie heaven.

 For dinner we met up with Cait's friend Jess and this little sports bar in a strip mall. Then we went back to the hotel and got ready to go to San Fran!

We didn't do much in San Francisco. We went and saw Gap Inc headquarters which was awesome. Don Fisher, the man who started Gap Inc, had an incredible art collection and if you work for the company you were able to take a peek! It was awesome, a lot of Warhol and other artists. Unfortunately,  you were not allowed to take pictures.

Then we drove through the city to go across the Golden Gate Bridge.

It was a great trip! We are looking forward to going back so that we can go do touristy things like see the Full House house, Alcatraz, Fisherman's Warf and more! We both start work next week so we will keep you updated on our last few days of freedom!
