San Francisco Sunday trip

We spent another Sunday away from Sacramento, trying to avoid the heat. This time we headed to San Francisco to visit a particular tackle shop that Gregory wanted to go to, hit the Stonestown Galleria mall, grab some lunch and hang out at the beach by the Golden Gate Bridge. Gregory wanted to try some fishing, so we tried the pier but since it was too windy we relocated down to the beach. Christopher had a blast climbing on the rocks and helping Daddy cast and reel in his fishing pole!

The Golden Gate Park signs.


This one came out blurry but I think it looks like a painting!

I love the expression on C's face here (and the color of the sky)!

Italian Camp

Christopher's been going to an Italian Camp all week for 3 hours each morning. It's not really a parent-participation class, but Christopher's never been left by himself so I've been going to the class with him. I did leave him there by himself on Wednesday, but he cried for 1/2 hour straight, so I'll stay with him for the rest of the week. He doesn't really like to participate as much as the other kids, but he is becoming more interested in how to say different things in Italian. Right now they're mostly concentrating on foods and colors.

They made gelato today so here's a picture of Christopher enjoying every last drop!
