Tuesday, May 19, 2009 19:38 1 CommentI was trying to come up with a really good list of the best hotels here in San Francisco for folks that are thinking of visiting San Francisco. And for folks that have never visited here. So I put in some time to think about this as there are a lot of hotels here and I came up with the list below.

Wednesday, April 22, 2009 9:03 3 CommentsI’m trying to post many of these Top 10 Lists here on San Francisco Pictures. Keep coming back for more in the future and I’ll have many more choices.
So this is the first time you are visiting San Francisco then I would suggest you visit some of the following places. I have my favorite places to visit and restaurants and bars to hang out and drink and dine at. Here’s my favorite list of must go to places. They are fun and definitely worth visiting for the first timer to San Francisco.
I have a pretty good list of stuff to do below. Lots of museums, places to go have drinks such as coffee or cocktails. Some of the more colorful neighborhoods like North Beach and even the Financial District. Also to note several of the items below are free. The Cable Car Museum is FREE, the Chinese Fortune Cookie Factory is FREE (although they will ask you to pay them some change for taking a photo), the Carnelian Room View is FREE but you do need to pay for cocktails. Walking across the Golden Gate Bridge is FREE as well.
Enjoy the list!
1 – Museum Of Modern Art in Soma
2 – Chinese Fortune Cookie Factory in Chinatown
3 – Deyoung Museum in Golden Gate Park
4 – Carnelian Room for cocktails in Financial District for some of the BEST views of the city
5 – Cappuccino at Cafe Trieste in North Beach
6 – Cable Car Museum in Nob Hill
7 – Walk across the Golden Gate Bridge
8 – Ride a Cable Car
9 – Belden Place
10 – Ride the F Line Street Car To Fisherman’s Wharf/Pier 39
I have a photo of each of the top 10 things to do in San Francisco below. I decided to slip 2 photos of the Cable Car and the Golden Gate Bridge as I couldn’t decide between each of them
