A Rainy Day on Vacation is Better Then a Sunny Day at Work – Day 10 – Tuesday – June 28

Wednesday, June 29, 2011
Woke up to cold and rain.  It was 53 and the rain was pounding on the roof of the RV as I awoke.  Georgia had asked to sleep with Mom and I wanted to catch up on my blog, so I slept in the overhead in the front.  Got up at 6 and the kids and Wendy did not wake until MUCH later.

I had 5 days to catch up on, and with picture uploads it took the better part of the day.  Everyone just kind of lazed around.  I organized the RV some more, set up directories and sorted through pictures.

Wendy decided to catch up on some laundry.  That took hours.  Pretty much a down day, but after all the hustle and bustle, it was nice to not be on the go.

Mid afternoon, we decided to watch Escape from Alcatraz.  The kids then decided they wanted to go to Rain Forest Café for dinner.  We had thought about someplace closer as the weather was still a mess and I did not know how long it would take.  When we gave the “go” we were out in 15 minutes.  Amazing how much quicker the kids move when it is their agenda they are working off of.

As we hit the highway, the fog was so dense we could barely see the car in front of us.  I comforted Wendy and the kids that I could see the tail lights and the marks on the road.  It took us about 20 minutes to get to the Wharf.  We found parking and walked the couple blocks to the restaurant, stopping at a couple shops along the way.

Rain Forest Café was fine.  Same as all the others I have been in, but they did have Fat Tire Ale, so that made it all bearable.

We were out around 10 and headed home.  Everyone in bed as we have an early rise and a lot of catching up to do over the next two days here in San Francisco.
