New Years, San Fran Style

The Nix Family returned once again to Denise's old stompin' grounds over New Years weekend for some fun family time. We spent one night at a hotel in Santa Clara to get in some swim and relaxation time, and were thrilled to have dinner with the Martins, Ken and Di and Janeen and Rob.

The next day, we took advantage of Holden's new-found love of rock climbing, and our desire to get back into the sport, and hung around Planet Rocks all day. It was at the Presidio, right on the Bay, but you wouldn't know it thanks to all that iconic fog.

Holden continued to refine his knot-tying and climbing skills. We all had a great time!






The next day, we returned to the Presidio to explore The Exploratorium - a wonderful, hands-on science learning place where we all ran around like a bunch of excited geeks. The kids had a great time learning and playing.


The Palace of Fine Arts is always such a great place to explore and photograph.




The fog cleared that day and we got to explore the waterfront a bit, despite the wind. These two were celebrating something BIG that happened the night before:
