Golden ScreenSavers

Tuesday July 16, 2002 – We slept in a little bit again today and got up around 8:30. Our first stop for the day was in Sausalito where we got out and walked around a bit and got a view from the city across the bay. We headed in towards San Francisco but turned off just before the Golden Gate Bridge and went up to an overlook. The fog had lifted pretty well and we were able to get some great views of the city and bridge. I got my picture taken and we took a family picture with the bridge in the background as well. We headed back down and were soon crossing the bridge to the city. After entering San Francisco we drove around Golden Gate Park and through the city a bit. We stopped by the “Pink Lady” houses for another picture with the city in the background. We drove down to Fisherman’s Wharf and found and checked into our penthouse hotel suite which is fantastic for all of us and has a great view of the wharf. We walked down and around the corner to Johnny Rocket’s for a light late lunch and then went back to the hotel where we got the car and drove over to the TechTV studios. My parents and everyone except Anna and myself explored San Francisco a bit more while Anna and I went to see a Live ScreenSavers broadcast. It was a pretty exciting thing to be a part of, the cast and crew of TSS was a great group of people who are truly excited and passionate about their jobs and I look forward to another broadcast on Thursday. Anna and I took a bus and then a trolley from the studio back to the hotel where we met up with our family and we headed out to the Italian section of town where we had reservations for dinner. Afterwards we walked back to Fisherman’s Wharf and explored it in the dark. Now Josie’s making cookies in our kitchen here and everyone’s watching Princess Diaries and then I think my mom wants to watch Live and Let Die, both of which are movies that take place in San Francisco. Tomorrow we have tickets for Alcatraz and we’re going to explore the city some more it should be an interesting few days here, if only it would warm up a little bit!
