The Foote Family: 08.2010

And finally...

Brothers feud at the Cable Car Museum

Uncle Geoff and Nora enjoying a fortune cookie in Chinatown.

One of Quinn's only requests was to ride a cable car.

This is officially known as "The Cable Car Face." She'll still do it three days later.

Quinn waited patiently to capture Ray's look of concentration.

Visiting GG

Since Nora already has two awesome grandmas, we started calling Great Grandma Foote "GG" to avoid confusion. We went to Sacramento to visit GG and the McCarthy's and Hodnett's.

Ready for lunch like a big girl

Wait a second, is this not a chair?

A little shy around these seldom-seen cousins

Back at the hotel

Playing the Monkey Matching game on Daddy's iPod

Golden Gate Overlook

The weather was perfect that day, so it was really crowded.

We could hardly find a place to park!

Too cold for Karen...

...but Nora wants to be outside!

Rayboy thought he wouldn't be able to entertain Nora,

but "Uncle Raybee" and "Baby Gaga" are best buddies!

Nora has never seen the ocean or the beach, until now. Okay, so this is actually the San Francisco Bay but I still count it. We did make it to the actual ocean but by that time Nora was asleep in the car (along with Mema and Quinno).

Wow! It's windy out here!

Trying out her fancy new 'splits' move

The splits didn't work as well as she thought.

Whoa! This is sticky!

Aquarium of the Bay

The aquarium is right on Pier 39 and has two tunnel tanks. Awesome!

Nora loves the fish!

Vortex of fish above us in the tunnel tank

I spy a crab!

Jaws!

PS To any friends who may be visiting the Aquarium of the Bay or other AZA attractions in the near future: Check for reciprocal agreements for discounts. We got half off admission because we also have a membership at Hogle Zoo.
