For an early birthday present Nick planned a mini vacation for the two of us this weekend. I told him I wanted to be surprised but about a day before we left I changed my mind and he told me part of the plan but kept our finally destination a secret still.
First Stop: We went to Blondie's Pizza in Berkeley for lunch. That pizza is so delicious I can't even tell you. The crust is amazing and Nick tells me that the BBQ chicken pizza is just as good as the pepperoni. It's pretty much THE reason to go to Berkeley.
Second Stop: After lunch we went and spent the day in San Francisco. We hung out at Pier 39 where we saw all the crazy people and fulfilled my salt water taffy needs. Nick and I also went to the aquarium were we saw the silliest sting ray and got to touch sting rays and tiger sharks. We finished our time in San Francisco at Ghiradelli square were we had a delicious ice cream sundae. For your viewing pleasue here are some pictures of the day and a video of the silly sting ray.

Third and Final Stop: Our final stop was in Pacifica, which is about a half hour away from San Francisco, were our hotel was. The hotel was apparently not what Nick had expected when he made the reservation online but we laughed about it and made the best of it all. There was a beach right next to us that we hung out on after dinner at L&L Hawaiian BBQ. Nick was cracking me up with his Indiana Jones seaweed whips and singing to his new best pal Gully.

It was such a fun trip and I'm so glad that I have such an amazing husband that was willing to do all of it for me. It was a great way to start celebrating my birthday and now the only problem is how in the world am I going to top this for his birthday next month?

Sounds like you had a great time and I am pretty sure I have been to that pizza place in berkley and it was good. So will I be an Aunt again in 9 months?
You should try Amici's Pizzeria next time you are in the bay area. What was wrong with the hotel? Hooch says thank you for the books.
Ha-ha! That silly stingray thinks he's a dolphin!
And your silly husband thinks he's Indiana Jones!
I can only hope my birthday turns out as exciting as yours (which it won't because let's face it, January birthday's don't have as much fun).
