After truly leaving my heart in San Francisco, we visited again a year and a half later. This time we opted to stay right on Fisherman's Wharf. This we found to be just as, if not even more, enjoyable as staying on Union Square.
We booked through the Radisson at Fisherman's Wharf and were very happy with it. I had read mixed reviews about it. Some people were so unhappy that they switched hotels the second night. I found no validation for this. The staff was awesome, the location couldn't be beat. I'm not really sure nor do I remember why they didn't like it but oh well, I'm glad it didn't deter me.
I've written before about San Francisco stating that we don't rent a car when there, well, we didn't this time either and again I found no reason to. I suppose if you were to drive up into the Wine Country from there you would need one for that but once again we were on our way to Hawaii and only had a few days in the city. We found plenty to do right there.
A must see is Pier 39. Actually you hear it before you see it. The most awesome sea lions all basking, playing and barking if you will, just waiting for you to snap their picture. The food and shopping is nice too. We ate at Bubba Gump's and had excellent service.
We took the Alcatraz tour one day and have added this to the must see list as well. The particular day we went, it was rainy and grey. (Not an unusual day out there I hear.) Truthfully that only added to the ambience of the infamous Rock. Definitely get the headsets that point out interesting tidbits about the prison. Take your time there and make sure to take in the short cinema they have. It is all so very interesting. You won't be disappointed. |
