Here's something different to home, instead of August bank holiday they have Labor day - which is the first Monday in September. It is supposed to mark the social and economic contribution of The Workers but more commonly known as the end of summer. For us, it was a much needed extra weekend day as, after two weeks of school the boys were very tired (and grumpy and disagreeable) and an extra days rest seems to have put them back on track. Especially son #2 who is not really used to the new, longer days now he is at Kinder.
I have to admit, I prefer the cooler temps of the San Francisco, but on Labor day itself it was quite sunny and we enjoyed a lovely walk down from Presido park to the touristy wharf and back again for some kite flying on the windy bay shore :-) The weather was even clear enough so you can see Golden Gate bridge in the background :-)
