Yesterday Ash, Lys and I decided to explore a museum in San Francisco that we hadn't been to yet --
The Legion of Honor. This beautiful example of neoclassical French architecture sets on a hilltop in Lincoln Park with views of the city on one side, the Golden Gate Bridge on another, and the ocean on yet another. We had to park down the road away but enjoyed the scenic walk overlooking the golf course and vistas.
Majestic horses and riders statues stand guard:
It is such a lovely setting that we saw four different brides
and grooms having photos taken here and there in the courtyard.
There was a lovely display of Dutch and Flemish Masterpieces and we all
fell in love with these colorful paintings that captured the essence of the
people of their time -- with Dutch blood in our veins, our imaginations were captivated with the scenes of everyday life.
Exquisite detail on some of the furniture made us appreciate the workmanship:
Our day began with lunch at Olive Garden and a little shopping and ended at Starbucks, resting our feet and enjoying one last tidbit of each other's company before I headed home. I love spending time with my daughters!
