yeah unless you're planning on taking side trips, a car really isn't necessary...if you plan on venturing into scary oakland (j/k, it's not scary at all) you can stop by my restaurant and I'll give you guys the straight hookup...

I'll PM you a few restaurants/sights that I've found to be fun times, if you'd like suggestions. you will love it here!

i love a good hookup.

as you know its right where the alcatraz ferries are ...very crowded yes ,but its still cool to check out ..imo

i love the water and fish so the aquarium was a must for me

plus on the particular day i went it was 85 and sunny with alittle ocean breeze.. totally perfect

81 seems like a people loving guy... so i'm sure he will like it

We visit aquariums each city we go to also...my favorite thing to do having had a saltwater tank for years.
Boston's aquarium rocks!

We couldn't do alcatraz 10 day waiting list...buy tix in advance for sure
couldn't get on a trolley car either so many waiting.

The memories I take from the San Fran area are great... we drove around one day...Haight-Ashbury area
was cool...thinking of all the great musicians from when I was a kid. And those hilly streets are great!
The chocolate is good there too.

i didn't waste any time with alcatraz neither.. ive seen the inside of prison enough :?

and as for the trolley ..got on 1 stop..was stuck in the middle like a bug..went 1 stop up a steep ass hill ..was holding on for dear life rang the bell ..said fuck this ..got off..jumped in a cab to the wharf

good info

alcatraz is a must see, didn't realize they had a 10 day waiting list. will buy that asap.

i didn't think the wharf would be good for anything but a quick see and leave.

gotta have a car for a few days to drive the crooked street.

i'm totally putting together a Clark Griswald schedule for this trip. monday 10am. hit the wharf. monday 10:15am, have a beer. monday 11am, have breakfast. oh wait..

he.who.forgets

If you go to a Giants game (which I highly recommend as it's a beautiful ballpark) hit up a microbrewery called 21st Amendment. It's just a couple blocks away. They brew about a dozen or so beers that are delicious!

parking on hills is easy. turn the wheels in and put on the parking brake. the harder thing to do is get going with a manual transmission. ok, it's not really hard, but i'm guessing the clutch wouldn't last as long.

I think I remember signs everywhere showing you to do this.
oh and be sure to go "airbourne" at least once it's like being in a movie!

looks like hotel costs are going to be painful. i'm used to paying 60 for a nice hotel, looking like i'll be lucky to stay under a bill. :x

Given to...

We LOVED the night tour of Alcatraz. I would do it over the day tour, arrive back at the pier and search out a nice dinner.

Anchor Steam Beer and Gilroys Garlic Fryies at the home of the WORLD CHAMPION GIANTS

A walk through NOrth Beach and up Coit Tower in the morning, catch lunch in the North Beach area (no Beach) but a great pizza shop (North Beach Pizza of course)

Pass on the Stinky Rose. (or something like that) That is tooo much garlic.

Cool bookstores between North Beach and Chinatown.

We got to see the King Tut display at the museum in Golden Gate Park, and the park itself is magical.

The bike ride across the bridge is awesome, like mentioned before.

Anchor Steam....that's the one i couldn't think of. I've had their beer. It's solid.

This should serve you well.

Lived in the area 25 or so years ago. Will never go back. Californians pretty much suck(unless they're Pearl Jam fans).

Its all good... I can understand the sentiment. (We do, however, have the Congressman. He is a city treasure.)
