SF Day 3 - Sourdough Turtles

Above: Baker Beach.

Last night, I didn't think I was going to live through the night. I think I caught whatever Jennifer had going on. I could not get warm. I got out of bed long enough to put on a pair of socks. Then I found some pillows in the closet. I piled these on top of me and basically shivered myself to sleep. At about 2:00 a.m., my fever broke and I woke up soaking in sweat.

The girls came in at 10:30 a.m. this morning. They were so exhausted they slept in longer than Jennifer ever has, I think.

I made it through the day on Ibuprofen. The sun came out today and the city was beautiful. Really spectacular. Still very cool..maybe even cold, mind you. But beautiful.

Because it was a short day, we only had time to hit Fisherman's Wharf, the Pier 39 Sea Lions, Ghiradelli Square, Lombard Street, the Golden Gate bridge, and a Justin Beiber movie. I wish we had more time so I could show them more of the city. So much to see, so little time.

Oops. Girls want a late-night sushi run, so we're off to the "House of Sushi". Scratch that. Make it "Chinese".

Update: This is a plant of the genus Cyclamen, of the family Myrsinaceae.
