Dropping off Cody in San Fransisco

In the last 7 weeks we've now been to St. George,  Monticello,  Cancun, and Couer d'Alene and you think we would be done traveling...but NOPE!  Next comes San Fransisco.  Even though it was amazing to see the area, this trip was a necessary evil because we were actually dropping Cody off to live there for three months.  It was a really fun place to visit and explore, but knowing we would be driving home without Daddy made it a bitter sweet endeavor.

Road trips always comes with way too much candy!

And lots of sleeping.

Crossing the Bay Bridge right into the thick of San Fransisco.  Cody's house is a couple miles from the Golden Gate park.   He'll be staying there with several other Residents.  First reason why we would never live in San Fransisco...SO much traffic! It is crazy how people like living here.

Alcatraz


Reason #2: Not the most conservative place to raise a young family.
He moved in right in the middle of Gay Pride week.


This was the most modest picture taken of the groups of people swarming the area in their bright tutus.


Only 3 miles to his house from the Bay Bridge and an hour later and we still have 1 mile to go. We got stuck behind some construciton for awhile, and what street were we stuck on for 20 minutes you ask?  Uranus of course.


Finally the signs giving us hope that we are almost there. 


Passing his place of work.  Where he will be performing many surgeries dealing with cancer. This roation is solely dedicated to Orthopedic Oncology. 


No-gas emitting buses.  They are powered by electricity, but that also creates a lot of wires all over the place.


Reason #3:  Too many people, too crowded.


After barely making it up several steep hills with Cody's bad tires we finally got to his house.
Reason #4:  Too many crazy hills...not even enjoyable on a bike.  We are bike people, so this won't do.


Unpacking his things in his dungeon.  (Just found out last week that he will have to share his dungeon with a stranger).


Atleast the house was a considerable size.  Cody looked up the cost of the house.  It is worth over a million dollars.  To be honest it wasn't even that great.  
Reason #5 Cost of living...outrageous!




The steep hill that he gets to climb on his bike every single day.


More to come later.
