Day #3

I picked up Marie and Kelsey about 10:00 a.m. at their hotel and we had breakfast at Stacks Restaurant before going to explore Fisherman's Wharf.

The ladies wanted to go souvenir shopping, so I agreed to be patient and let them do their shopping.

We spent an hour or so looking at the shops at Ghirardelli Square (multiple purchases were made!) and then we made our way down to see the street venders near the cable car turn-around.

Kelsey found a street artist she liked who agreed to draw her portrait.

We then went to the Blue Mermaid Restaurant for a late lunch. Again, clam chowder was the choice of the day.

A drive down Lombard Street, the "crookedest street," was a little scary.

Next we went to the Presideo to check out the Walt Disney Museum Gift Shop and, of course, there was more shopping.

We decided to return to the hotel and rest before picking up Andrew at the airport.

Andrew arrived about 8:00 p.m. and we drove to the Benihanna of Tokyo Restaurant for a late dinner.

We had a delicous meal and the cooking display was awesome!

 

 

It was a long day and we got to bed about midnight.
