San Francisco Day 4/ Monterey Day 1 California

Yesterday was kind of chaotic. It was the day when we went from San Francisco to Monterey. We woke up, my dad worked then jogged from the far end of the Golden Gate Bridge, a 6-mile jog. When he got back, he said that someone broke into a car right across the street from him in broad daylight at 10:00 o’clock A.M. It took the people 15 seconds to do it.  After we did school, then we packed, put our laundry into the wash, then got all ready to go. When my mom went to get the laundry from the dryer, it was still wet. We restarted it, and when we went to get it again, it was still wet. We grabbed it, put it into a bag, and brought it to the car. We took a detour to see the painted ladies, AKA the houses that it shows in the Full House. BTW, the pictures below are the ones that my mom took, not from the internet. After that, we drove to a Ritz-Carlton for lunch. There was a pumpkin that was about 5 feet long and 2 feet tall at the entrance. I got one of the best burgers of my life. Also, there were a ton of birds hounding us for our food. I wacked 8 of them with my napkin, 4 out of the air. One bird stole a chip right out of the chip bowl on our table. After lunch, we got back in the car and drove until a town called Capitola. My dad said that it would be perfect if we saw an ice cream shop that had a restaurant, and then, not even a minute later, we saw Polar Bear Ice Cream, and went in. There were 56 flavors! I got cotton candy and dirty paws. Dirty paws is caramel ice cream with Oreo bits in it. We hopped back into the car and drove the last hour to Spanish Bay hotel. While we were driving in, there was a gate and a sign that said welcome to Pebble Beach. We went through to the most beautiful golf course + resort I have ever seen! We listened to the bagpiper that plays every night. My sisters got stuffed animals from the nice lady at the front desk. We went to our room, and our bags were already there! The room is enormous. It is 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, but it has a big living area. It is nice. We went down to a dinner spot, ate dinner, then came back. When we were about to go to bed, someone rang our doorbell and asked if we wanted our sheets turned down. We went to sleep, and that was the end of the day.

TODAY

Today, my mom and sisters are going to an aquarium. I would go to, but we think that I have a sprained ankle. I don’t know how or when it happened, but it did. Also, we are going to play the par 3 course at Pebble Beach this afternoon.
