We Actually Did Something Fun Here

First of all, let me get this out of the way.
Jay looks like a homeless man because all of his clothes were dirty.
He's wearing one of Leo's shirts to keep him warm.
His pants are too short.
His shoes are too big.
It's even worse because Leo looks a little GQ.
 This did not stop every random stranger we saw from commenting on how cute Jay was.
(He's good at tricking people.)
Any how, these pictures were taken right outside of our temporary housing.
There's an obscene amount of deer here.
We saw 14 driving home from church today.
Leo loves it.

We went to Fisherman's Wharf yesterday.
It's really close and we had a lot of fun.
 We walked to the end of the pier and watched the kayakers.
There was also a seal (or something like that) swimming around right beneath us.
It kept popping up above the water and diving back down again.
I'm pretty sure Jay Alvin thought it was a sea monster.
See how he's looking towards the water with a concerned look on his face?
When I handed him to Ty to take a picture Jay was sure he was going to be monster lunch.

The water was freezing.
 And Leo was absolutely fascinated by it.
 Jay got his feet wet this one time, and then refused to touch the water again.

 Leo couldn't keep himself away from the water and ended up soaked.
 Here's Jay refusing to put his feet in the water again.
The boats were also really cool.
Leo kept saying that he needed his coins so he could ride on one.
We had dinner on the pier and Ty was incredibly happy when Jay and Leo ate calamari, shrimp and clam chowder with gusto.
Their favorite part, however, was the candy shop we went to after.
I think we'll be spending a lot of time here.


P.S. We bought a GPS yesterday so we don't have to spend so much time going around in circles on one-way streets. We might have also paid $13 extra so it would give us directions in Darth Vader's voice. It was totally worth it.
