Thank you in advance.

I'll be checking into a hotel in San Francisco with another DUer at around 4:00 PM this afternoon.

Anything interesting will be most appreciated by both of us.

Here's one I like to share, informative:

1. A better idea...
Edited on Mon Feb-16-09 04:20 PM by MineralMan
Check into your hotel, then leave at once and go somewhere and see something, do something, experience something. I'm just sayin...

If you need assistance in finding something:

3. Thank you for the link.
The weather is surprisingly nice so we're going to the zoo across the street.

Business has me nearby, not likely to go downtown until this evening, maybe.

Might try to find a great restaurant here in the Sunset District.

Thanks!

2. Another suggestion...
Leave your hotel and go to Vesuvio in North Beach. The auras of all the Beat poets still inhabit the place. Just watch out for Ferlinghetti. He likes to goose people just to see their startled reactions. Have a glass of wine at one of the two tables near the window and watch the parade. From there, something else will suggest itself. I could spend two weeks in North Beach and never leave that neighborhood. Seriously.

7. Jatbar...1000 restaurants reviewed from San Francisco to San Jose
Photos in every review. The best restaurant review site on the Web, period. "Jatbar" stands for "Jason and Terry's Bay Area Review."
