If any of them have never seen the Golden Gate Bridge, it’s still one of the marvels of the modern world. Or maybe I’m just old fashioned. Looks good on Steve’s poop map, although there’s probably seagull poop. I seem to remember there’s an old fort called the Presidio at the south end, is that a tourist attraction? North across the bridge is wine country.

There's also fisherman's wharf and Pier 39 (not 49 if I remember correctly). As mentioned there is the Exploratorium, Steinhart Aquarium, Cal Academy, and Muir Woods to name just a handful of the big ones, but there are probably a couple dozen in and around the city. If you haven't done it, taking one of the ferry rides around the bay is a real treat; especially for someone who has never been there. In the south bay, there is Great America, the computer history museum, and Tech Interactive. I do like the Monterey Bay Aquarium, but I haven't been there in a while. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 6/7/2024 11:32 AM, Ken Hohhof wrote: Is there a Ghirardelli factory or store?

First of all, don't forget to find a good, authentic mission style burrito somewhere along the way. If I find a specific place next weekend when I'm down there, I'll let you know. Santa Cruz is where I always think when I think about Northern California Beach with amusement park. There's an old time coin operated arcade/museum near pier 49 in San Francisco. My visits to that part of the world almost always contains a Boudin sourdough bread bowl with clam chowder in it from the Boudin bakery and then a walk over to the arcade, and then a walk over to the end of pier 49 to see the sea lions. Closer to the bay Bridge is the explotatorium which is a great science museum on one of the other piers. I usually try to arrange my visits for the adult only evenings but that won't apply for you. If I'm relying on public transportation (or just want the experience) you can take a cable car from mission and market up over the hill and down to basically the Boudin bakery. Then there are old time trolleys which service the route along the piers so I've been known to use the trolley to go from pier 49 to the exploratorium. Both myself and my wife were disappointed by the Monterey Bay aquarium, as in the one in the Salt Lake Valley might be better. Different critters, obviously and the Monterey bay aquarium has been around for quite some time. I'm sure this is because of how many aquariums and similar we've visited and that our expectations were higher than reality because of the reputation. I'm not saying don't go, just expect a smaller aquarium.

Day 1 Computer Museum, Winchester House then thinking of heading toward Monterey for the clam chowder samples and perhaps the aquarium. This might stretch into the second day. Is there an amusement part in Half Moon Bay? I seem to remember some touristy stuff there. Then downtown SF, street cars, wharf with navy vessels and Bubba Gump shrimp, perhaps Alcatraz. Then ??? and home. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com _____ -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com _____ -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
