At the San Francisco Zoo, we saw the
renowned "Red-Shirted-Singeropus." |

The acoustics at the National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi were a
perfect showcase and beautiful backdrop for the boys' talent. |

Oakland A's fans know a good thing when they hear it. The
boys' National Anthem brought the house down. |

The wonderful folks at St. Thomas More were so taken with the boys,
they treated us all to ice cream at the local Cold Stone Creamery.
That was really cool! |

The Alcatraz tour was an interesting history lesson. This
picture is called "Red Man Walking." |

The beauty, majesty and serenity of Muir Woods was an inspiring adventure
for everyone. |

Did you know it takes up to 10 days to make a Jelly Belly jell bean?
We all had to wear these hats for the tour. (Note from Mr. C:
Mr. A's picture is available for a nominal fee.)
|

We'd have let this big guy join the choir, but he's too full of
himself.
|

The visit to Sutter's Fort was a great "hands-on" classroom on the
tools and trades of the Old West. |

And of course, the older boys enjoyed our time with the Sacramento
Children's chorus. |

Biking the Golden Gate Bridge was an interesting math lesson.
Ask one us how 1.7 miles = 8.1 miles. (Whew!) |

Singing in the beautiful, historic Spanish mission, the Basilica at
Mt. Carmel, was an inspirational experience. |

Apologies... the splendor of the Hearst Castle obviously overtook
some of the boys as we snapped this one. |

Whale watching is so much fun... |

...especially when you see whales! (See notes from the Boston
tour.) |

Nothing like sitting with friends on the set of "Friends" at the
Warner Brothers Studio lot. |

Mr. A took a moment to try on a new bed for his house. Uh,
Mrs. A, can you re-arrange the furniture to fit this? |

A mention of "Sea Hunt" would go way over these boys heads, but the
wet suits made snorkeling off Catalina much more comfortable. |

The kind folks at First American Title were very accommodating at
our concert there. |

The All American Boys Chorus had a great afternoon planned for us
with outdoor games, food... |

and a special time of singing for and with each other. |

Looks like Princess Fiona will be dumping Shrek for four new
princes. |

The traditional Chinese Dinner. Must be the last night of
tour! |

And Skit Night is... well, it's like watching laws and sausage being
made - not for the faint of heart. |

The legacy continues. The 2005 - 2006 Tour Choir season ends
with a successful tour. A great group of young men who make
all associated with them very, very proud. |
