Our landlords are John and Ellen. They do not own the house we live in but do all the repairs. They live in the neighborhood with us. After we moved in they offered to take us on a tour of the city to help us figure this place out and show us some pretty unique places only people that have lived in San Francisco their entire lives would know. So, the tour first started with a visit to a neighbor's backyard where they have chickens! The kids loved holding them and feeding them corn.
Then we loaded up in their van and started the tour. It was really really great! They took us everywhere! Over the bay bridge to Treasure Island where we got some fantastic views of the city and the FOG!
They drove us all around the Embarcadero where all the large ships and barges were docked. They also drove us down Lombard street and let the kids stand up through the sun roof to enjoy the view! They loved it!
After lunch, they took the kids to Ghiradelli Square for some enormous sundaes!
They then took us down to the Presidio to the Wave Organ, a systems of pipes that stick out into the ocean and come up on the beach like an Organ. The sound of the waves hitting the pipes sound like music. Really neat! Here we got a nice group picture before heading back home. We are so lucky to have such nice landlords....I think its rare in this city!
