This is fantastic information. Just what I was looking for, an insiders view! Thanks so much

RsGrady - take them to the Academy of Science in Golden Gate Park. Get there when they open and spend most of the day. You can read about it towards the end of my trip report (1st trip to Cal or something like that). click on my name.

So good. Bookmarking as we're planning an anniversary trip in the fall!

This hasn't been topped in several months - so here it is

and I thank you for doing so................I feel the need for a trip to the City SOON!

I must say listen to this man!!

Thank you so much for the tips for my trip to CA - I printed out what you suggested and it was a huge laugh when I read that you said we should be leaving San Francisco between 3:30 and 4:00 - it was 3:44!!

We saw what we wanted in the city - made it to Fort Bragg by 10:30 pm - and drove up the coast and then to Weaverville before 7 pm the next day!! tired yes but loved it all!! we are so glad we drove up the coast!!! thanks again - we did appreciate it!!

Hello Stu.

First, thank you for all your post & info.
I'm a 45 women traveling alone.
I'll be in SF for a week in mid-december.
I have a couple of question for you:
1-I plan ti stay at the Holliday Inn Civic Center but lot of people told me that it's a "weird" and dangerous area.

What do you think about.

2- I would like to take the a day tour and I'm hesitate through Yosemite or Muir woods. What do you suggest ?

3- What is the best place in SF for a Fish&chips ?

4- Any other suggest or advice are welcome.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I just posted something about that within the last 2 weeks - and I would never stay near Civic Center

>>2- I would like to take the a day tour and I'm hesitate through Yosemite or Muir woods. What do you suggest ?<<

Big difference. Yosemite is fabulous - but way too far away for a day-trip where you can get something worthwhile from your visit. Muir Woods is a half-day trip and that is "fine" and easy.

>>3- What is the best place in SF for a Fish&chips ?<<

I have only had Fish & Chips at 1 San Francisco Restaurant (Waterbar) and I would not recommend it. I like Barbara's (or Betty's) Fish Trap and Sam's Chowder House (for lunch) in/near Half Moon Bay (South of SF).

>>4- Any other suggest or advice are welcome.<<

Most of what I know is in the above thread.
