Leely - thank you! I would love to check it out on Sunday evening. I appreciate that.

Had yet another great stay in SF this weekend and we survived a 10k and half-marathon.

Tried Hard Water for dinner last night. A Charles Phan resto. If you or your Hubs like whiskey, good place to stop.
Oh...and our gumbo, blistered peppers and chicken and waffles were outstanding!!

New Orleans themed menu, GREAT whiskey selections and quite a funky design.

Pier 3, a short walk towards FishWharf from the Ferry Bldg. Posted some pix at "that other place".:-)

Kal, I hear you survived the weekend, but did SF survive in one piece? :-D

Let us know the next time you're in HMB, and we'll hop down to dine with you and the lovely Marisa at It's Italia.

I am getting a quote on transportation to HMB and will decide based on that. I think we might go in that direction. I might surprise my husband...he would love HMB and it will be nice for him to have a quiet weekend based on his current schedule. Still deciding... :-)

Have you checked to see if the Ritz is available for points on the night you may want to stay?

I have only been the Half Moon Bay once but I want to go back again.

Rent a car.

Sf is it necessary? That means dealing w getting the car etc. I'm not sure we will need the car in hmb ?

Unless you are going to stay at the Ritz the entire time, you will need a car in HMB.

For once DebitNM and SF7307 are correct. O:)

harumph!

;;) >:D<

don't bat your eyes at me! I told you, that won't cut it anymore! :p

:-)

Half Moon Bay is suburban, and part of it is on the ocean - the Ritz is 3-1/2 miles from the restaurant It's Italia. I guess you could take cabs, but I honestly don't know how available they are. I also think a car service to HMB would be much pricier than a car rental, but maybe not. Without a car, you couldn't even take a drive along the ocean.

Here's an idea: Take BART out to SFO, rent a car there, drive it to HMB, and turn it in back at SFO the night before you fly out.

Sorry was traveling for the weekend... I think we will stick with SF for this trip. Sounds "easier" and for right now - easier is good.

Working on reservations for our dinner.

Reservations are made - looking forward to a special anniversary weekend with my man! :-)

Wonderful! I hope you get great weather and have time to relax and celebrate.

Enjoy to the max!
