Thanksgiving (With Dad and Allen)


Since this was my first Thanksgiving away from home, Dad decided to come-on-down to San Francisco with his long-time buddy Allen to help celebrate the festivities. This was Dad's second time to the city, but Allen was still green, so after a great day of good food with close friends, we spent some time hitting a few of the city's sweet spots (similar to the itenearary during Wayne's trip.) What few pictures I took will tell the rest:

Dad and Allen managed to snag two nice rooms at the Stanyan Park Hotel.



The day after Thanksgiving(day three), we prepared for our sight-seeing excurison with breakfast at the Cliff House Restaurant...



We spent a while on the Golden Gate Bridge...







Followed by a cool ride on a Cable Car...




And after a walk on the piers to see the bay and get some chili, we took little stroll through Union Square on our way back to the train home (sorry Dad, couldn't resist)...





After long day and good times, it was back to the hotel for some much needed r&r. The hotel is the brown awning way in the background, but here's a shot of the laundromat down the street with the resident chow dog...

So the green poncho thing. Did Frank lose a bet? Or did he get mugged and only have enough lose change left to buy the poncho?
