Fam goes to Sausalito and the Embarcadero

I did so much while my family was here that I have to break it up into multiple. Nothing is ever dull when they are around, thats for sure. 
I decided to take them for a stroll along the Embarcadero, the street that runs all along the water, for some people watching and to check out the Ferry Building. We walked for a few miles from Fisherman's Wharf all the way down, past Pier 23 to Pier 1 which is where the Ferry Building sits. 

Along the way we stumbled upon the farmers market, some quotes etched into the sidewalk and of course, the annual naked bike race. It wouldn't be SF if we hadn't stumbled upon that.
On a nice day I definitely recommend taking a stroll down the Embarcadero!

My fam also took a trip over to Sausalito (where I work) and came out to lunch on the bay. It was kinda chilly but it was so fun to show them where I work and hang out on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Of course we ended our night with an outing to North Beach at Tony's Pizza (to die for) and had a great view of Coit Tower all ready for St. Patty's day.
I can't wait for their next visit!

When friends visit...

Sometimes nothing is better than having friends come visit for a long weekend. I'm pretty sure I was non stop laughing the entire time.

Here we are at one of my favorite brunch spots in North Beach, Delluva.

We had bottomless mimosas.....

                                                                It was pretty fun....



Then we hiked up the hill to Coit Tower.

Bonafide Tourist

One of my favorite things to do in the city is become a tourist on the weekends. I love showing my friends around and doing new things I haven't done before..and in this city it feels like that happens frequently.

Also, with the frequency of gorgeous days we had in January, I've had some fun this past month!
