During our 8 days in San Francisco, we took day trips. The first was a bike ride over the Golden Gate Bridge and down the (steep) hill into Sausalito.

The first weekend of our honeymoon trip was spent in San Diego, where we had a great gathering of improvisers known as Barrel of Monkeys. When not improvising, we enjoyed some of San Diego’s fine offerings, mainly beaches and brews.
