I am still bummed that it rained, although I had fun showing you around and seeing the sights of the city and having coffee and eating cookies... :) The feeling of sleeping in your own bed (with a person to snuggle with) must be great! I know what it's like to miss that!

Isn't it wonderful to visit friends who live afar? I think SF is my favorite -- certainly not LA! It's just a great city and lots in the area, too!

I believe the only time I've been in San Francisco was a day with summer camp.

I'm actually hoping that when we do it will be in the form of a road trip down the Oregon Coast with SF being the final destination, I know lots of people who have done that and loved it! <br /><br />I don't travel a lot from work so I always enjoy it when I get to go on work trips! I usually try to tag it onto something fun if at all possible to make it more enjoyable and something to look forward to. Like I have a conference in Hamilton, ON in May that backs onto the weekend so my coworker and I are going to stay the weekend and spend it in Toronto since neither of us have ever been so I'm really looking forward to that work trip. I think traveling as much as you do would be way too exhausting for me though!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185652640389232120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-63289301667595723982012-12-10T22:54:32.820-06:002012-12-10T22:54:32.820-06:00Glad you were able to get a much needed night of r...Glad you were able to get a much needed night of rest also then as it definitely sounds like you were running around like crazy! I think some of my favorite parts of CA are the smaller northern coastal towns, but I have also enjoyed SF. The trip I took to Yosemite was breath taking and I'd love to go back....I'd also love to go to the Redwoods but dogs aren't allowed! So much to CA though and it's not too far away from me :) So glad you had such a great trip!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14534188581599809339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-23811030815404063462012-12-10T20:16:11.063-06:002012-12-10T20:16:11.063-06:00"Can I just stay, "Full House"?

I think it would've been very easy for you to say this trip is all work and in order to maintain an ounce of sanity, you need to keep to yourself during all your down time. Instead, you booked dinner and drinks and even tacked on extra days to see blogging friends. I think that's pretty incredible. <br /><br />As you know, I traveled with work for many years and HATED it. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to relate to your upcoming post. =)Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1131924142966006519.post-20609398711837518562012-12-10T11:55:30.461-06:002012-12-10T11:55:30.461-06:00Gorgeous photos!

I have only been to LA but I loved it; took time to travel up and down the coast to see the beaches, mountains and different towns and it's just beautiful.

That being said, I did have a great time on my one (and only) work trip to Chicago. I also hope that my wedding business grows to more than just the Boston area and I'm able to travel for it. So maybe I take back what I said.. haha<br /><br />I looove California. I've been to San Fran and San Diego and I don't think I could choose between them. They're both so different but awesome in their own way.

I've only had the opportunity to see Southern CA -- which I also loved.<br /><br />8 days and 5 different beds is insane! I bet you were loony exhausted!<br /><br />Next trip to CA will be to San Francisco, though! <br /><br />(The deleted comment above is from me, I made it not realizing I was signed in under Ryan's account.

I'm not sure which area I preferred because my experience in both places was so different. It's a great state overall though :) Kelly (She Wears a Red Sox Cap)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04415604174106394910noreply@blogger.com
