Bay Cruise

This morning Caden had soccer, then we headed straight from soccer to pier 39 so we could ride a boat! Recently, Caden has been talking about wanting to go on a boat...so I thought it would be fun to go on a cruise around the bay. We looked online to find the schedule and Caden was very excited to see the boat we were going to ride on. Anyways...we arrive at the pier in perfect timing to get lunch, then get on the boat. I go to reach for my wallet and it isn't there! Ahhh!!! It's at home! We drive back home and grab my wallet, then take off back to the pier. We get to the pier with about 5 minutes before the boat is scheduled to depart. As we cross the bridge from the parking lot, I see the boat is still there and loading people. In order to make it, we have to go down the stairs. I had Emma in the stroller and was bumping her down the stairs...she wasn't enjoying this, and a very nice man and his wife saw me struggle and helped carry Emma in the stroller down the stairs! I thank him profusely and we are the last ones to board the boat. Anyways...we made it and had a great time on the boat! Emma has crazy sea legs and was walking all around on the boat. We saw the sea lions, sailed under the golden gate bridge and around Alcatraz. We even saw two dolphins jump by the side of the boat! Caden loved going up and down the stairs exploring the boat. A super fun, yet crazy morning!
