Happy 4th from San Francisco!

​​We started the first full day in San Francisco with a city tour driven by Ray and directed by Laine. Laine showed us China Town and the Italian section of San Francisco. She also took us to Ghirardelli square, where she surprised us with some chocolate squares. We then saw the wharf, the financial district, the view of the city from twin peaks, and the Golden Gate Bridge. We ended the tour in Saulsalito, which is where we had lunch. Some groups had burgers, many chose Mexican, and most had ice cream at Lappertʼs ice cream. Sausalito also offered some great souvenir 
and clothes shops for the travelers to explore. We then made our way over to an Oakland Athletics and Minnesota Twins game. At the game we enjoyed some traditional ball park grub: hot dogs, hamburgers, nachos, and pretzels! We also got to be a part of the wave, singing take me out to the ball game, and got featured on the Jumbotron! In the end, the Twins took home the win, and the kids took home some souvenir hats and sweatshirts. -Haley
