Yesterday we told you about the first part of our 3-day San Francisco vacation. Our next two days in the Fog City were packed with lots of great food and adventure, including one of the coolest experiences of our lives – biking across the Golden Gate Bridge. Here is how day two started:

Our morning began with a trip to Blue Bottle. I don’t want to exaggerate here at all, but this was the absolute best coffee shop experience we have ever had.

They also threw a great party at a place called Waterbar, complete with this amazing view.
