After 5 hours at the Exploritorium.  It is truly one of the greatest Museums.  Anyone in the San Francisco area or who is going to San Francisco, this is a must on your list.  We litterly had to drag the kids out of there. 

We decided we were hungry and went down to the Wharf.  Since Stacey could not fit all of us in her car we gave her the kids and Myrinda and I took a cab. While waiting for her to arrive I saw this motley crew walking.  I turned to Myrinda and said " wow, dosent that look like Angelina Jolie with all those kids in funny hats".  After a second look we realized that gaggle of kids were ours.  on the way from the car Stacey generously bought all the kids hats.  If the kids were not insane enough to begin with this doubled it.

AND SO THE INSANITY BEGAN.......

TWO PICTURES FROM MY IPHONE AT LUNCH

By the end of the week our girls wanted to run away and become street performers.  They new everyone on the strip personally.  Every time we walked down the road the would all call for the girls to perform with them, which the girls did happily.

They even decided to put on a show of their own a few times.  Im sure many people have them in their scrapbooks as we speak.  the girls were only too Happy to perform, stand for photos and sign autographs.

One perfomer kept handing the girls balloon aminals

This demon from hell followed us everywhere.

WATCHING THE SEA LIONS AT PIER 39

This became a daily event.  The girls were captivated by the Sea lions.  They loved watching them and at one point naming them.  Many days we would get bowls of hot Clam Chower and sit on the peir looking at them. It was really quite Zen.

SAN FANCISCO--- DAY 1

ZIVA, AURORA AND EMILEE

The girls could not have been happier to see each other.  They were hugging, laughing and skipping around for the entire week. It was both exhausting and a delight to see.
