We stayed on the wharf in the Argonaut Hotel (near Ghirardelli Square).

Greg and Brian enjoyed Tempura Langoustine and Chilled Ceviche (ask them what that is!).

The waiter told Greg to down the ceviche in one gulp.

The chef at Michael Mina gifted each of us with a lobster sampler (complete with a lobster corn dog).

|
|
|
We went down Lombard Street on our way home from church.
|
|
|
|
|
We also took the kids to Alamo Square (Brooke wore shorts under her skirt so she could run around).
|
|
|
|
Brian took an "artistic" picture with the camera he got for his birthday. (By the way...Cheryl got a camera too).
|
|
|
|
Brent bought another loaf of bread before heading to Alcatraz.

|
|
We begged Brent to eat the frog leg (yes, it does taste like chicken!).
|
|
|
|
Brooke kissed her frog (leg).
|
|
|
|
One of the desserts was a trio of creme brulee with cookies.
|
|
|
|
Brent took this picture in front of Ghirardelli Square on our walk home from dinner (this picture is for Grandma!).
|
|
|
|
The waiter gave breakfast cakes to the "ladies and birthday boy." Brent also got one (Brian was the birthday boy; Brent must be one of the ladies?).
