We had a fabulous time in CA delivering the golden female, biking the Golden Gate, and visiting with family we haven’t seen for 9 years. 

 
Heading to the airport…

 
Puppy traveling under the seat!  

She never made a sound.   

   
Golden Girl goes to her forever home!

Waiting for the Vallejo Ferry 

So much fun riding across the Golden Gate. I would recommend this to anyone who visits the city. A huge thank you to the Lin family who made this possible for us to do!

  
We rode all the way to Sausalito then took a ferry back to the Ferry Building. We passed very close by Alcatraz. Taking a tour of that will be on my list the next time I’m in the city!

 
Of course we poked around Pier 39. I brought home some fun spices and we bought grapes that must have cost $0.10 per grape!  But they were quite tasty!

And I can’t forget that we ate at In-n-Out twice!!  They don’t have them where we live. 

And during all this time, my emails got piled deep, so thank you for your patience and I hope to respond to everyone very soon. 

 
It was a fabulous break for our whole family!
