San Francisco

We celebrated an early Thanksgiving in the Bay Area. This is something of a normal occurrence in my family, marking holidays earlier or later than most.  

But first, Eric and spent a few days of exploring San Francisco--- first on the colorful and comfortable "Public"  Harbor Court loaner bikes from our hotel, Harbor Court.
Our route took us along the Embarcadero and the Marina Green to the majestic Golden Gate Bridge, where we turned around at Hopper's Hands (Google this for the story:).

Along the Embarcadero, near the Exploratorium at the Ferry Building, there was a playful installation of round-the-rosey monkeys.  Passersby could put the monkeys in motion by creating a common rhythm on the steel drums surrounding the huge metal tree.
