On Saturday afternoon we had reservations for a catamaran tour in the Bay!

San Francisco – Day 3
We were technically in San Francisco for a conference, and I procrastinated (see a theme?) and didn’t get us in the conference hotel. When we showed up at the conference hotel today for my presentation, I had to do a lot of apologizing to J who walked in, looked around, and then gave me the “are you kidding me” look. The conference was held at the Hyatt Regency at the Embarcadero Center area. And it’s beautiful. [This is not a sponsored post, but Hyatt, if you’re reading, I’d be happy to come and stay there *wink, wink*]
Alcatraz! (San Francisco – Day 2, Part 2)
I’m a procrastinator and sometimes that gets me into trouble. You’d think at 32 I would’ve learned my lesson, but nah.
So what does that have to do with Alcatraz?
San Francisco – Day 2 (Part 1)
17 miles yesterday and 12 miles today!
Today started with a reservation for breakfast at Kitchen Story in the Castro district. I have three words: fried. French. toast.
San Francisco – Day 1 (Part 3)
We saw so much on our first day that I had to split the day into three different posts (see first post here and my dim sum post here).
After lunch we headed toward Ocean Beach!
San Francisco – Day 1 (Part 1)
The husband and I just got back from our first trip to California, and it’s good to be home! Although we had a great time, there were a lot of things about this trip that didn’t go as planned (and I’m a planner, so that’s difficult for me to deal with 🤷🏻‍♀️).
Scotland Series – Day 14
This was the last day of our Scotland adventure, and to be honest, I reallllllly didn’t want to come back to the U.S.
Since we still hadn’t been inside a castle, our goal was to get to Dunstaffnage Castle.
Scotland Series – Day 12 (Part 3)
I can’t believe how many cool things we saw in one day! Scotland is gorgeous, and it doesn’t take a very long drive to find not just beautiful, but also historic, scenery.
Our next stop of the day was at a canal where they were actually lowering the water to get some boats through!

Scotland Series – Day 12 (Part 1)
We packed so much cool stuff into today that I had to break up this post into three parts! (and I’ll probably still have way too many pictures!)
Some of the students had already been to this location, so when I heard there was an old jail here in Inveraray, it became one of the top things I wanted to do!
Scotland Series – Day 11
I was doing so well with blog posts but school prep and wedding planning has taken over my life recently. I’m really excited about my wedding, but holy cow y’all, elopement is smart. After the Scotland Series, I’ll be doing some wedding updates.
But back to the happiness of Scotland – on day 11 we met at the school but didn’t really have anything to do. The students went to class with their Scots, so we three chaperones went walking around downtown, which of course means food again!
