Success! Our trip to San Francisco was absolutely fabulous. Aside from seeing all the touristy scenes in the city (clam chowder at Fisherman’s Wharf, Alcatrez, Union Square shopping, Chinatown, Golden Gate Bridge, and riding the cable cars), I did get to check out a cafe or two along the way.

On a Hill by the Bay

On a Hill by the Bay

This week I’m headed to San Francisco for a wee vacation. Webmaster has a web-themed conference to attend and I’m tagging along because, while I’ve visited other parts of California, I’ve never seen San Francisco. On my must-see list are: SFMOMA, Golden Gate Bridge Park (gorgeous gardens, I’m told), Nob Hill area, China Town, Haight-Ashbury, and North Beach (heard there’s a great cafe here called Trieste which features impromptu opera on Saturday afternoons – now there’s something I have not seen in any Twin City cafes!). Maybe if there’s time and the weather is good we’ll check out Alcatrez. Personally I’m just excited to explore a fantastic city via old-fashioned cable cars. Plus the weather there has got to be better than what we’ve got here!

Anyone have any other S.F. must-see/do suggestions for me?

I have more reviews in the works, so stay tuned!
