Seeing the Sights: Day Six

We spent the day today in San Francisco seeing the sights.  We woke up to a beautiful view from our balcony, then walked down (then up, then down, then up, can you say hills?) to Fisherman's Wharf, visited Pier 39 and the sea lions, Adam barked at them for a bit.
Good Morning, San Francisco

Alcatraz - Adam says he could totally escape!

Can you see the Golden Gate behind us?

The sea lions at Pier 39



Stopped into Chowder's (what better) for a bowl of clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl, yum!  Then, onto Ghirardelli Square where we bough more chocolate than anyone needs, ever!

Then, Adam says we have to make a stop.  Where, I ask?  He won't say, but into a cab we jump and head over to O'Farrell Street.  We walk a ways, and arrive at a fancy building where we have to be buzzed in, and up to the tenth floor we go. Surprise for me, it's Brilliant Earth, a wonderful conflict free jeweler where he has set up an appointment so I can get an anniversary band made, how exciting!  I picked out a beautiful ring, can't wait for it to be finished and arrive at home!
The sample of my ring, so pretty!  

Then, back to the hotel we head to get ready for dinner.  We ate at a cute little brasserie called Absinthe, where we tried, well, absinthe.  The food was super yummy, and the absinthe was delicious!  What a busy, fun day!

Ahhh, the green fairy!
