AT&T Park was AMAZING! All of us would recommend a visit! Noah was looking forward to this game the entire time. I am happy to report, I think it may have exceeded his expectations. Leah loved it as well! She loved the kids field, where she was hitting whiffle balls out of the park(seriously, she hit one through the fence), and running clockwise around the bases (3,2,1, home), she ran fast and took it very seriously. All we could do was laugh and enjoy her new found passion for the game! Unfortunately, the Giants didn't pull off a win! 4-2 Dodgers took the game! Wow, is this a rivalry. The fans were very intense! Well, I better run to bed, as tomorrow should be a very busy day! Lots left to do in San Francisco!

We've arrived!!!
We made it to San Francisco! Our final destination!!! The kids loved the streets! Weee.... "this is like a roller coaster."
The picture on the bottom is as we drove in over the Golden Gate Bridge. We arrived the same time as a large cloud! It was really cool, we drove right through it! The temperature dropped very quickly!

Day 9-Leaving Crescent City and Heading to the Redwoods
Bye..Rich, BJ and Uncle Art were such wonderful hosts!
How could we forget to share pics of Uncle Art's Fancy Pad!
Day 8- We make it to visit Great Uncle Art!
We made it after nearly 3+ hours of nail biting driving from the coast, we found Grants Pass! Uncle Art, Rich and BJ, were very excited to see us, as were we to see them! They whisked us right off (per Uncle Art's request) to the brand new restaurant on the river! It was rather spectacular. They were incredible hosts!!!! We really enjoyed our visit!
Oregon Dunes...
Day 7-The Oregon Coast (On the road again)
After a long debate, we decided to head to the coast and put off Crater Lake. It was beautiful, but hazy, as it is most of the time. We visited the MOST photographed Lighthouse in the world and added a couple of new hikes to our list of accomplishments! As you can see the kids had a great time! Dad too, this time! No sandals-Tennis Shoes!
All the Nilsen's!
Yes, it is true we got to meet and see everyone! We were VERY excited! Now...we are told that John will be providing a flowchart that I will attach with all necessary info. I know, Mom (Patty) you should be jealous! Now it is your turn! They are awaiting your arrival! (And hopefully planning for the Cierzan's next visit!)
Made it to meet our Oregon Cousins! The Nilsen's!
Worn out, taking a quick nap...
Leah...wasn't really into the Museum...
Leah tried...but the cool playground was calling her name. However, she did work a deal with the airplane ride attendant, if she would learn one thing she would get extra rides on the airplane. So, she did...she learned that the Blackbird Airplane was REALLY fast and didn't look like a bird. She rode the airplane 5 times in a row! She charmed em! She also liked their homemade sparkling grape juice made from pinot noir grapes from the vineyard onsite!
Day 6-Heading to Eugene, Oregon...
