On the Way to the Airport

What a great activity to do on the way to the airport - go to the Oakland Temple Grounds.  I had never been - it is quite a complex and overlooks the entire bay and San Francisco.
Katie had packed us an amazing picnic.
Just can't enough of that Seth.
We walked around the grounds - they were beautiful.
Had a tour of the Visitor's Center - the kids even got Missionary Badges.
There is a terrace on the second level of the temple - we walked all around and enjoyed the beauty of the day.
This kind of gives you a glimpse of the grounds.  The temple is behind me, there is a large auditorium on the right and the visitor's center on the left.
Lots of benches and planters to walk on.

  1. Beautiful setting in that little corner of the world. It is made all the more lovely with the lovely folks in the photos perusing the grounds.

  2. That really is a gorgeous temple grounds. It is lovely to see such pure little creatures walking around such a lovely place. (and by pure, i don't mean that they won't - on occasion - be a little messy with a tasty lunch.)

  3. I really like that temple. I had the opportunity to visit on that infamous trip to San Francisco. That was definitely a highlight.
