Day 5: San Francisco Musuem of Modern Art

 This day was kind of a wash.  It was raining pretty much all day and we took public transportation to the SFMOMA.  So, we got wet. 
 Once in the museum, it didn't take long to discover that we're not really a cultured, art museum kind of family.  Brad kept touching everything, Lila spilled her water and cried incessantly, and everyone was pretty bored.  Sky did get to make a scratch art masterpiece and we did go on a family tour (although Lila cried through most of it). 
 Brad had his favorite dog, Bolt, with him and this painting resembles him quite well so we couldn't resist a picture.  All told, we spent about 1 hour there and then left before someone kicked us out. 
Thankfully this was a day when Ken was back early and so he took the kids swimming.  It was an outdoor heated pool but still very cold.  The kids had been begging me all week so they were so happy when they finally got to go swimming.  At the end of the trip, after seeing many wondrous sights, when I asked Brad what his favorite part was, he said, "The swimming!"  Kids!

Your post reminded me of when I was young. Family took a trip to Washington, DC. The motel had a swimming pool and that was all we kids wanted to do!--Go in the pool! Forget about all of the sights in our nation's capital! As you said, "Kids!" The pictures you have taken will remind them for years to come of all the wonderful things you saw and experienced in San Francisco, Nov. 2011.
