Our Last House in California...

We arrived at our final destination outside San Francisco on Wednesday. It was starting to hit us that our trip was almost over, and some of the things that we had planned to do didn't work out. We wanted to go to Alcatraz but had no idea you need to get tickets 3 weeks in advance! That was a bummer. But we made the best of it in this beautiful, hilltop home...



Many games of pool were played...


And we spent one night cooking an entirely organic, healthy meal with locally grown produce and fresh caught fish. We even tried California artichokes - never having tried them before I have no way of comparing them...


Danny made these absolutely amazing scallops! He cooks without recipes so I can only hope he can repeat them again.


Here's Danny serving the kids at this INCREDIBLE outdoor kitchen - I mean it was luxury beyond anything we have ever seen... tv, dishwasher, grill, bathroom, fridge, everything you could ever want for entertaining.


Danny was definitely in his element cooking out there... I really think he enjoyed it! It was so cute watching him cook!


This was the final product - three types of fish, mango salsa and sweet potatoes... mmmmm.... the best meal we had there. Delicious.

After dinner everyone enjoyed the view from the hot tub. I am sure we will never experience anything like that ever again. The view was just a million-dollar view.


No, Hannah is not dead, she is laying back, completely relaxed, and enjoying the water...


Happy Danny at the end of the day!
