I left my heart…

After the beach house we drove up to Joel’s parents house to visit for a weeks or so. It happened to be the week of our five year anniversary and we were privileged enough to drop Norah off with Joel’s brother’s family and go stay in San Francisco for a couple of days. We almost forgot what it felt like to sleep in. Almost.

We had a blast. We got to eat yummy food together, go on walks and we even got to see a movie!  The highlight though was definitely the GoCar.  We saw a couple of them whizzing around the city the first night we were there and on a whim decided to rent one for a few hours the next day.  It was hilarious (and only a little dangerous)!  We could not stop laughing the entire time. It was great because we were able to see parts of the city we had never seen before.  The cars have GPS tours and guide you around while telling you about what you are seeing.  You can also go off the tour and just drive around.  These things are street legal though- you are literally driving in this miniature, three-wheeled car on the same street with buses and trolley cars!  If you ever are in a city where these are available- do it!  Here are some pics…
