San Fran Trip - Day 3

Day 3 of the San Fran trip brought us to Santa Cruz Beach. We spent some time walking the pier and shopping and eating, of course, and then hung out at the beach. There were rides on the pier as well, but we didn't ride any of them. It was a lot of fun, and Bayley really enjoyed the sand and even liked the ocean. When Jeff first put her feet in the water, she kind of freaked out but then she got used to it, and liked the waves coming up over her legs. We have some cute video of her, but unfortunately, I didn't take any pics of her in the water.

Bayley hanging out with her new sunglasses that she stole! We were walking along the pier and had just left a store. Jeff said "Did you buy those sunglasses for her?" I looked down, and sure enough she had a pair of sunglasses in her hand that she had taken without me or Jeff realizing. Needless to say, Jeff went back in the store and bought them for her so she could keep them. Nothing like a little one year old to turn you into a thief!

After we had played at the beach for a while, a few of us decided to take the 45 minute drive to Pebble Beach. There is a 17 mile road that winds around through all the famous golf courses. It was beautiful. We got some really great video (again, no pics, sorry) of the coast as we drove a long. We saw such pretty scenery and even saw some seals. While driving in a more wooded area of the 17 mile road, we had seen a deer. Jeff said "It's kind of cool when you can see a deer and a seal, two animals you would never imagine seeing together, in the same place!"

Later that evening, we decided to head out to Candlestick park for a 49ers game. Tim was able to get some tickets for only $10 bucks, last minute, so we decided to take advantage. Mom stayed back at the hotel with Bayley, which we appreciated so much, cuz it turned out to be super cold and windy that night. It was fun, even though our seats were clear up in the nosebleed section. We were on the very last row you could even get on!

See how high up we were!
