My Awesome Auntie Hjordis and My Unique Uncle Bob Come to Visit

The Great Aunt and Uncle came to visit us as part of their RV trip up to Alaska. They have a really cool and massive RV and they travel the country. We would love to do something like that when we retire. You know we love to travel...

This is the Memorial Day parade and ceremony that they do at the Presidio Ceremony. It was really cool. The band played some great music and the speakers were inspiring. We felt very patriotic.
The podium. They had all kinds of old cars on display and people wearing different war uniforms from all different time periods. It was really interesting.

Then it was off to the Japanese Gardens in Golden Gate Park. This is the main pagoda.

My Great Grandmother had a garden like this one but on a much smaller scale. It was really cool to see.

We loved this bridge!

At the top...

The cranes. They are stone but beautiful.

A nice shot of the cranes and Uncle Bob.

After a trip to China town, we headed home. But we couldn't resist taking a picture at our favorite lookout spot. NICE!
