Hello All
Long term lurker - first time poster.
I have always enjoyed reading the forum and have especially like the approach that all of the vets take to newbies.
Anyway, the reason for this post is to gain more info on the San Francisco area.
I have travelled their on business but on March 9 I arrive with the family (DW, DD11 and DD10).
The family has now traveled to Cali two times, both in August, both times to LA,DLR, San Diego. This is our first trip to Northern CA.
I would appreciate some advice on our itinerary.
We arrive mid-day Friday and plan on driving to the Golden Gate park and hanging out till we can get into our hotel.
I have booked the Sheraton Fisherman's Wharf based on advice on this forum.
On Saturday we will check out FW, Pier 39, ride the trolley cars and hang out.
On Sunday we are still trying to decide whether to go to Zeum or the Exploratorium. Advice is more than welcome. After this we will start the drive to Monterey and depending on time stop at Santa Cruz Boardwalk (it is open till 6pm so it depends on when we hit the road)
Monday is Monteray day with the Aquarium, Cannery Row and drive the 17 mile.
Tuesday is travel day to Anaheim. Route suggestions (PCH vs 101 vs I5) are welcome.
Wed-Friday is DLR (we have visited in Aug 05 and 06 so we will try to take it slow and enjoy it)
So what do you think? Any ideas?
And what should we expect for the weather . Currently we are averaging -10 C or 14 F right now so even it is in the 50/60's it will be an improvement.
Thank you
Drew
