Sightseeing
This is a great museum which features rotating artworks from around the world. It also has one of the largest permanent Rodin collections outside of France. The museum sits atop the hill just up the street from the house and has wonderful views of the Pacific Ocean and Golden Gate Bridge.

This is one of the local science centric museums. Great for families and singles alike. I highly recommend this for an indoor day. For the adults they also have a "Nightlife at the museum" which offers drinks and a great atmosphere, 21 and over only.

Great classy brunch, lunch and dinner spot. Started off as a small cafe and has grown into a local favorite dining spot. It is a bit small for large groups but 4 people or less it is solid. Good date spot for dinner.

City advice
Getting around
Your CAR!!!
Don't leave items visible or valuables in car. This is a large city with a diverse crowd. Most are friendly but we do have car break-ins and theft. Don't leave things in your car.
