Ryan and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary a few months early this year in San Francisco thanks to an amazing flight deal.
We were gone five days and the kids stayed with Ryan's parents.
We had the best time and it was a much needed trip!
Tuesday
We arrived in San Fran just before lunch.
We headed right to Twin Peaks to get great views of the city and bay.
We ate lunch at Cliff House right on the coast and then walked Golden Gate Bridge.
After checking in at our hotel we took a quick rest before heading out for dinner, Pier 39, Fisherman's Warf, and Ghirardelli Square.
Wednesday
We headed out on our drive up the coast to the Redwood National Forest.
We hit up Avenue of the Giants on our drive to get a sneak peak at the Redwoods.
Thursday
We spent the day hiking in the Redwoods.
We started the morning in Fern Canyon (part of Jurassic World was filmed here).
It was eerie and so different for the other scenery.
Then we drove to Tall Tree Grove.
This hike was incredible!
The Redwoods were so massive and numerous!
We grabbed dinner at Costco before beginning our drive back to San Fran.
Friday
We finished our drive back to San Fran and hit up Golden Gate Park.
We went to the Academy of Sciences and to Pluto's for lunch.
Then we did a quick drive to see the Full House house and The Painted Ladies homes.
We took another quick rest of our feet at the hotel before heading out for dinner and our night tour of Alcatraz.
Alcatraz was definitely a highlight of the trip!
Saturday
We headed across the bridge to the Oakland temple Open House before catching our flight home that afternoon.
This temple is has an amazing site and the grounds are definitely some of my favorite.
It was such an amazing trip!
I fell in love with the colorful homes of San Fran and would love to go to the Redwoods again.
They are purely magical!
