We decided to forgo the train ticket for our ride up the California coast and rent a 15 passenger van instead. We stopped in Montecito for lunch, ate dinner in Big Sur at Nepenth (thanks Ethan for the rec) and arrived in SF after midnight last night. Happy birthday Olivia!!! She had a wonderful bday. Our friend Alice Cahan gave us a ride to the ferry for Alcatraz. The kids loved the tour. It was a GORGEOUS day, so they were able to see the beautiful views from the boat and the island. We met up with Uncle Ethan for lunch, a hike on the beach and then a fantastic Burmese dinner, followed by birthday ice cream on Ethan!! We finished off the evening by taking a stroll through Chinatown. It was a GREAT day!! We are off to Marin tomorrow.
The Cunneens just returned from their two week journey from Maine to North Carolina (not nearly as ambitious!)and have LOVED catching up on your photos. Blake thought that the Grand Canyon was pretty, but was most impressed that Caroline was wearing her McD lax shirt...hmmm...Happy Birthday to Olivia! Amy, Jack, Blake and Anne Cole
