Whew just made it back! It was a very fun day. I am getting better at the frisco thing every time I go. I was following directions to the 2 parking garages redhead suggested and I saw one on Sutter and something so I grabbed it...parked without a hitch...we got there right before 10...18 bucks for the whole day.
The cable cars had a line a mile long...we took the "f" bus to pier 39 that was definetely an experience...wall to wall people hanging on the rails..trying not to fall crazy guy gets on and cusses out the driver...just another day in the big city...hehe...my daughter wanted to eat at bubba gumps...she loves shrimp...it was very good. I really wanted to try the cream puffs but didn't see the place...I have never actually gone into the bloomingdales...nordstroms big shopping center...it was huge.
My daughter got a hoodie from hollister...she really like one at abercrombie but they didn't have her size...she got an "I love Bubba" hoodie at the Bubba Gump store next to the restaurant...(our dogs name is Bubba)
edit to add:
Sophie...I know you will get a kick out of this...all day I was looking for a cute young asian girls....really narrowed down my options!

Looks like you had fun! I'm glad you made it to Union Square AND Pier 39. Next time .... we'll have to meet! You got a deal on the parking - $18 to park all day in S.F. is almost unheard of. The F-line isn't a bus - it's a trolley. Trolleys are the ones with the wires overhead. Cable cars are pulled by a cable that runs underground. Looks like you got a ride on one of the historical trolleys. What fun!

Oh thanks for the info Redhead...I thought they tried to make a bus look like a trolley or something....
-
LOL! I just took another look at the pic with the kitty. I LOVE that leggy lamp! :D
As for the historical trolleys, San Francisco has a collection of trolley cars from all over the world. They've been restored to what they looked like in their native countries. There are even some old ones from San Francisco, that I remember riding on when I was a little girl. They are fun.

I didn't even notice that the lamp was a leg...that is pretty cute.

LOL! I tried looking for a group of brown haired girls, but have I ever told you how hard that is during the holiday sales in San Francisco? :D I saw the kittens and puppies for adoption in the Macy's windows, too. There was an adorable little terrier mix but I didn't have the energy to push through the crowds to ooh and aah :p Mmm. My feet hurt now!

Gosh my feet hurt so bad last night....all of us took our shoes off the minute we got in the car. I had a tad bit of trouble finding my freeway but it took just a few minutes to get it straightened out.
