San Francisco with Granny and Grandpa Mariner


Well, I uploaded the photos from my fancy camera, only to realize that I didn't do a very good job at capturing a week of Granny, Grandpa and Jackson together. I'm going to have to work on that in the future. Most of the photos seem to be of Daddy and Jackson. Mommy still doesn't like to be photographed so it's a rare opportunity to see me in any of them...


We started the week off with a bang by visiting San Francisco on Sunday, the day after my parents arrived here in California. The weather was sunny but a little breezy and chilly. Unfortunately we didn't do a very good job of planning our day so we spent most of it blowing through the sights in an attempt to make it from point A to point B. We walked for MILES up and down some serious hills. Our 1st mission was Chinatown. By the time we made it there we were a hungry bunch. Dusty is an adventurous foodie and chose a nice little hole-in-the-wall place right in the center of the action. I think it was a little too authentic for most of our tastes but steak and potato-loving Grandpa was a good sport although I was a little nervous when it took a few tries for the waiter to understand what Coca-Cola was. The rest of us just settled for water...

This is after the meal... still alive and with big smiles on their faces!


Nap time on the looooong walk from Chinatown to Pier 39.


We FINALLY made it!


Look who's awake!

Stay tuned to see what we were up to the rest of the week!
