Sounds like you had a great day! I didn't know there was ice skating in SF! If we were to go hang out in SF, we would take the ferry from Vallejo. We have done that a couple of times. One year we did that for our anniversary. Oh it was for our 20th. We have been married for 29, that tells you how long we did that. But we did it again last summer as part of a church outing to the Aquarium on the Bay.
Cheesecake Factory?! Oh my, that place is awesome!!! And Tiffany's is pretty cool too.
Thank you so much Mo for taking me to San Fran... I've never been to California. You did a great job chronicling your fun shopping outing...even got your picture taken for us...How fun! What a fascinating place this is. ;-) Bo
Wonderful pictures Mo! I loved seeing all the famous stores. I have never been to California. You are a beautiful lady. The picture of you and your hubby is so good. Thank you for sharing all the pictures with us.
What a nice shopping trip and I didn't spend any money, now that's a first, LOL. What a beautiful city, thanks for the tour!!

What wonderful memories you brought back to me. I went to school in San Fransisco. The Bryman School for dental assisting.
I was one of the first riders of Bart and took it into town every day and I think the tickets then were only 1.25. A wonderful town.
Maybe one day I will ride that train again.....meet me at Tiffany's.

Looks like you had a wonderful day. I've always felt like San Francisco is our little New York. Christmas there is so pretty.

Hi Mo,
I forgot to tell you how adorable you look in the pic with your hubby (: You had asked about my kichen cabinets~I have a pic on the right side of my blog, just scroll down till you see it, also in my older posts, I can't remember which month though, you can see where we did a little remodel. The cabinet is actually cherry red but for some reason it looks really dark in that pic. I repaint my cabinets all the time, I usually leave the top cab's white and paint the bottom a color, they have been red,black,2 different greens and pink! Crazy I know but I love change!! Good luck!

Looks like the most amazing shopping trip that I've ever seen.
I've never been to California. It is so beautiful. Now I want to go! What did you buy? Thanks for sharing this with us. Come visit me sometimes.
