WICKEDLY FUN WEEKEND!


We decide to have one last "hoorah" before school starts, so as a family we spent the weekend in San Francisco (on Nob Hill no less) Friday night, we all saw WICKED and all loved it except for Chan who slept through the last half of it, which was fine with the rest of us!


Early Saturday morning Shawn and I went for a walk, one of my favorites, we walked from the Mark Hopkins Hotel on Nob Hill... down and up and down (you know how walking in San Fran goes) to Coit Tower on Telegraph hill. I love walking through Chinatown in the early hours, it is like being transported to China, all of the vendors getting ready for the day with every exotic food you can imagine. My lungs burned and legs hurt when we returned to our sleeping angels!


It is a good thing we walked, because we decided to hit a famous place for breakfast "Mama's on Washington" it always has a line to get into. They are open from 8am til 3 p.m. We only waited about 45 minutes and I can truthfully tell you it was totally worth the wait and we will be returning there again soon! PURE HEAVEN!! It was a hit with everyone! My favorite was their sampler french toast (pictured) 3 different sliced of french toast with fresh berries. Banana, cinnamon and mixed berry french toast (all homemade of course) I hate to think of the calories I consumed there...ALOT!! SOO worth it!

We did some school shopping and then headed to the De Young Museum in Golden Gate Park to see the KING TUT exhibit. VERY interesting. It is mind boggeling to think that we were seeing artifacts over 3000 years old. Go see it before it is gone!
