Day 12-San Francisco

Day 12: San Francisco

Surprise! Sleepys back for one more blog! We started off the day by travelling to the cliff house and the suture baths! While we were here, we traveled down a path for a short and sweet hike to a cave where a tunnel had been built. In the tunnel we could hear the crashing of the waves on the other side of the rocks which was a very cool perspective since we didn’t get wet at all! 


After leaving the cliff house and suture baths, we drove by the painted ladies where the show Full House was set which was really cool because we all grew up watching the show! Once we did our drive by of the painted ladies, we made our way to the Fisherman’s Wharf where we took pictures, saw Alcatraz, listened to research by Ellie, Abby, Abby, and Grant, and shopped on Pier 39. After listening to all the great research, shopping, and exploring we all split up and began to see the city. Many of us walked up Lombard Street (what a hike), ate lunch at In-N-Out (10/10), rode the trolley, and tried authentic clam chowder. The possibilities offered in San Francisco are endless! Some of us went to the interesting shops and purchased of variety of things including plushies, merchandise and (fake) katanas (some of us wanted to be awesome ninjas). The whole group met in ChinaTown for an early dinner where we were served a variety of Chinese cuisine and then we were set loose for another hour on our way back to the bus. While walking back, some decided to stop in Italian shops for gelato and ice cream. 


At around 6:00 pm we drove over to the Golden Gate Bridge. It took roughly an hour for everyone to complete. The fog was obdurate and caused the view to be lacking. Some people fought their fears while walking on the bridge that is over 200 feet above water, Go us! Bad news, we lost a kid going over the Golden Gate Bridge… Find out next blog to see who it is. Evan out! Just kidding!! Everyone is safe and sound and now getting ready for some good sleep! Tomorrow we will be heading to beautiful YOSEMITE! We are so very excited to see all the beautiful views of Northern California!

 

Love, The Sleepys <3
