San Francisco
With this blog posting, I'm going to begin a staycation itinerary for you locals (those of you from out of the area can call it an old-fashioned vacation!). My husband and I did this quick escape without a suitcase. We packed the bare essentials in our day bags, and on the first day took BART and an F-car historical trolley to Fisherman's Wharf. The next day, we walked along The Embarcadero, stopping here and there, and returned home on BART. Today, I will describe the lodging, and in future posts I will describe some restaurants and activities. Stay tuned.
