SF/My Heart/948753 Pics&Parts (DAY 2)

Day 2
BIKE THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE DAY
My most recommended San Francisco to-do. Well if you're like us at least. 
This was blissful glee
Jill and Eric had done this before so they took us under their wings and over to BLAZING SADDLES.
You could say we still use the store name in jokes.
They also finagled us a deal where we had to go to the back counter to talk details...FANCY.
We got our bikes and went along the water by Ghiradelli sqaure, across parks, past fancy houses, with the beautiful view of the bridge the whole way. Little Ruth was in tow on Jillian's bike. 
She's a toughy, pulling baby along with her...skillz. 
Jill did a a little photo shoot for us here...SJO LOVES mushy photo shoots.
 Do you think SF kids realize how spoiled they are?? Playing their soccer games in the shadow of the Golden Gate Bridge! Right on the water too.

 We biked over the bridge into the cutie cute town of Sausalito. Fun ride down into the town, sweetest lil main street, lots of fun restaurants. We ate somewhere super good. Can't remember the name, but I definitely recommend it.
 I mean Ruth even liked their coasters...
 This was the view over the water to San Fran. 
 Ruthie kickin' it with her mad bottle holding skills. 
 After some delicious ice cream at Lapparts - don't know where the pics are. 
(DELICIOUS and the only other time I've had it is whenever my fam goes to Hawaii. 
Hidden jem...worth the ride). 
We took the ferry back to the mainland with our bikes.
 It was full of booze cruisers. 
We fit right in. 
 Our tour guide continued to take us to "must sees" everywhere we went. 
This - the Full House house. You know what I'm talking about. 
Uncle Jessie was not there. AND there's no way that many people could have lived there. 
Pretty sure they put that piece of tape across 'cause they want no visitors. Boring.
 Then it was on to "The Painted Ladies" houses. Which is where you think the Tanner's live in full house, but no, just a landmark. Which I knew nothing about, but loved it so much it lead me to an evening of research and the purchasing of a replica magnet. I recommend you read about it. 
(Don't mind the port-a-potties, they're prob gone now)
 The park across the street was adorable and had a stellar view of the houses and the city. 
My stoic Mr.  
 The night was completed with some "must have" Chinese take out and kickin' it with Netflix. 
It's nice crashing with peeps that know your style.
