Hot in San Francisco?!

Thought we's never experience this! It was almost 90 degrees in SF this Friday and Saturday! We were so gitty to be outside in shorts and no jackets! The city was going crazy with tons of people out and about, the parks were packed and all the restaurant and bar patios were packed. We sat outside at one of our local restaurant patios and had a glass of wine and were actually warm! We walked down the Fillmore steps to get some shots of the sunset over the bridge. It was Summer Solstice the next day and the sunset was amazing.

Our apartment was still 86 degrees inside at 8:30pm Friday night! (No a/c either so this was HOT!) Saturday was another warm day hitting 87 degrees and we decided to go on a hike around Land's End on the Coastal trail. The views were awesome and it was so clear out we could see all the way to the Farralon's.


After our hike we went to the beach and it was packed, of course. Even the breeze that is normally cold was warm- it was bizarre. We laid out and then walked into the water. I made it up to my waist and Karl actually made it all the way in and swam around- crazy! The water was still bitter cold. Sure enough, later that afternoon, normal SF weather started rolling back in and it started to get chilly and the wind turned cold again....glad we enjoyed it while we could!
