Going to San Francisco soon!

Okay, that is the coolest thing since smoked cheese! Thanks for posting that!
 
My husband was a Jump Master, so he thought it was below him. LOL

My kids and friends all love it. They have lots of competitions too. My daughter gave my grand daughter a BDay party there and took like 17 kids. Man what long day. LOL
 
I lived in San Francisco for several years and it's where I met my husband - miss it terribly. A bit of advice: if you are going to be there for more than a few days, go the DART/Muni websites (probably can easily find them from the City of San Francisco website) and check out their commuter passes. They use to have weekend or week-long passes (in addition to the regular month or yearly passes) that can save you a bunch if you plan on riding the cable cars, buses or underground subway. You can always purchase a pass at the kiosk that's close to a major stop (i.e. the Powell Street line where it ends between 4th & 5th Streets on Market Street - my office use to be @ 4th & Market). Be sure you pick up a map!

Don't hesitate to try one of the neighborhood restaurants - they're usually the BEST places to eat - use to be a Japanese noodle shop off of Judah that was to die for and cheap! Ha's is off the Judah line and is great chinese food - yummy green bean dish... For fun in the sun - go to Baker Beach - just be warned - the closer you walk to Golden Gate Bridge, the scantier the clothing! And for the best martini with the best view - head down the coast to Half Moon Bay and go to Moss Beach Distillery - it has a ton of history and the "Blue Lady" ghost! Favorite place of mine to eat and relax away from the City. And if you go a bit further down the coastal highway, a great beach to go to is Pescadero State Beach - has a wonderful rocky bar you can walk out on to see great tide pool creatures and also dig for mussels - however, not during an "r" month.

For the warmest, friendliest church you'll ever meet - St. Francis Lutheran - located at the corner of Church St. & Market. Sometimes we'd get unusual characters off the street - but that made it more real! It survived both the 06 and 89 earthquakes and is a beautiful red-brick gothic style church.

Have fun - it is a magical city!

My favorite city. We did fisherman's wharf, Alcatraz, napa valley, the crooked street (?), china town, road a trolley, we had so much fun. beautiful city -- the plants are amazing--so big and lush.

I want to go back now....

have fun.
 
San Francisco's nice! Lots of fun thing to do there! And if you like roller coasters, don't sit in a trolley car- hang in to a pole and stand up! It's really fun! Just hold on tightly so you don't fall

And Chinatown's a nice place, too. I bought some yummy candy there once...

And you're lucky you didn't depart last week- it was cold! But now it's really really really warm- warm enough for me to give the chickens baths and warm enough to wear shorts.
