Cable Cars, Merry-go-rounds, oh my!

by Papa K on July 5, 2011

Saturday was a day of San Francisco-themed firsts for Maile Girl. We took the cable car downtown and then checked out the merry-go-round outside the Zeum at Yerba Buena. (Dad note: we’re not going to cover it in this post, but the Zeum was a hidden gem of a children’s museum. One of our favorites we’ve been to in the city.)

Maile was not as enthusiastic about the merry-go-round. Here Chris is negotiating with her to ride one of the horses...

She ended up choosing the sleigh/couch setup. Technically, she was on the merry-go-round, but I told her it doesn't really count.

Not enjoying the merry-go-round. Is this over soon?

Maybe better with Daddy? Nope. (Hey, we paid for two rides!)
