Moores Go West: Day 17 (Easter in San Francisco)

Easter in the camper. We are grateful for a risen Savior and a safe place to land to be with friends after a couple of hard days. Thankfully I remembered to snag some goodies for the boys before we headed out on our big trip west. 

Spending Easter Sunday in San Francisco with friends. First stop was the Golden Gate Bridge (we also stopped at Facebook Headquarters for a photo). This is our Easter pic for this year.

After the visiting the Golden Gate Bridge, we grabbed dim sum from Chinatown for lunch. We took it down to eat at the wharf with a better view of Alcatraz. After eating we walked around the pier and experienced street performers before finding a local spot for ice cream. We ended our tour of SF by driving up Hyde Street, which felt shockingly vertical. It was a very culturally diverse day — a great way to experience the melting pot that is San Francisco. A great reminder on this Easter Sunday that Jesus died for all of us, no matter how different we are.

Leaving SF, we stopped at Half Moon Bay State Park to play in the waves on this chilly afternoon. It was so beautiful. Sharing this afternoon with friends, was the best. 

We ended this Easter Sunday with our friends by celebrating with a Passover Seder meal together. When we first found out that our friends would be in Palo Alto (for work) at the same time as us, we had no idea it would work out for us to 1) crash on their street in Palo Alto with a camper, 2) spend an entire day sight seeing with them in the Bay Area, or 3) get to spend a holiday with them. God was in the details during our time here and we feel very blessed to have had this time to catch our breaths and be with friends.
