After the 49ers game, Jay was starving for some Clam Chowder..so we headed down to the Wharf for some seafood!! I, on the other hand, was craving anything other than seafood!!On our way down to the Wharf, we heard a bunch of screaming!! It ended up being a group of Sea Lions trying to fight for a place to nap!! Apparently, this group has migrated to the bay because of its protected climate, and the many fish to munch on!!
The Golden Gate Bridge was soooo beautiful!!! We took a nice afternoon drive through the City and then over the Bridge!! The sights were so breath-taking and it was a cool 70 degrees.
On the way home we stopped at the Oakland Temple. It sits on top of a hill and you can see all of the City of San Francisco from its grounds. As you walk into the Visitor's Center, the Golden Gate Bridge and the Bay Bridge illuminate in the background. We wanted to stay for the sunset, but it was getting late!!
The Visitor's Center had a special item on display; it was one of the original Books of Mormon left from the original 5000 that were first published. Apparently, Joseph Smith gave this copy to a friend of his who was a Methodist minister, and when he passed, a member of the church bought it at an auction. He then loaned it to the Temple while he is on a mission with his wife!!
Can you believe it...Talen's first trip to the Temple..he was so excited he was doing back flips inside mommy's tummy!! He is 33 weeks!!
