Today we left the rescue mission and did a bunch of sightseeing. We left the building around 10 and went through the neighborhoods of San Francisco. The first thing we went to were the Painted Ladies. Among those was the "Full House" house, and the house from the old movie: "Mrs. Doubtfire". Another sight we saw was the Golden Gate Bridge. We walked to the first of the pylons and took some group pictures. Some of us went to the gift shop for souvenirs. After that we went to the famous Pier 39. We split up into groups (all with leaders of course!) and toured the wharf. We ate lunch at some different restaurants when it was lunchtime, but for the most part, we stayed there at the wharf, shopping for about 3 hours. After that, Tom says we are going to the Giradelli Chocolate Factory for some of their Famous Hot Fudge Sundaes! These sundaes were not your average sundaes. This was a giant Sundae! If you look at some of the pictures below, you'll know what I'm talking about. After we filled our stomachs, we took off for Lombard street. In case you didn't know, Lombard street is famous for its steepness. Most of us (a couple slept on the bus) started up the street to make it to the top. Some of us thought, "hey, wait, shouldn't we have had sundaes after the steep climb?" Once we got to the top, it was an amazing sight! Around 4 p.m., we headed for Redding! We sat on the bus and played games till about 9:30, when we got to Redding Christian Fellowship. We unpacked a little bit and then fell asleep around 11.
