    Alcatraz is a great tour. Obviously, Fisherman's Wharf. So is a trip to Muir Woods to see the redwoods. Although it's 4 hours south of SF, the Hearst Mansion is spectacular and so is the drive south of Carmel to San Simeon.

    Things I like to do in San Francisco....

    Check out the Church of John Coltrane

    http://www.coltranechurch.org/

    Walk all the way around Stern Grove...a BEAUTIFUL park hidden away in the City...

    See some music somewhere.

    Drive across the Golden Gate Bridge and go to the look-out point that is UP the hill...(not just the one on the right where the busses stop...the one on the other side of the road...

    Go to The Cliff House..but not to eat...just check out the views and history...maybe have a drink at the bar.

    Walk the path over by the Sutro Baths (next to the Cliff House), around Land's End, to the view of the GG Bridge...not sure the name of the path, but easy to find...

    Eat dinner at The Blue Plate.

    Eat ice cream at Bi-Rite Creamery. (seriously. OMG.)

    Have pizza (or other food) at Pizzaria Delfina.

    Explore the Mission District...eat Mexican food...

    Take a twilight cruise of the bay...

    Did the quake make you spill your drink?

    Have a great stay in the City by the Bay.

    Did you have those drinks at Top of The Mark, atop the Mark Hopkins Hotel? Very scenic view of the city from the lounge on the top floor.
