San Francisco knows that the way to your heart is through your stomach. Enjoy oysters and beer at the Hog Island Oyster Company in the always-fun Ferry
Building. Sip wine while viewing the latest in contemporary art at Varnish, and loosen your belt while indulging at Restaurant Gary Danko.
Head to Pier 39's K-dock to see hunders of sea lions lazing in the sun. Take in a spectacular view from former military post the Presidio -- it's now a
national park or imagine what life was like on the 'inside' on a guided tour of Alcatraz. Or spend a day touring the famed Napa trail, then head over the
mountain to the lower-key Sonoma. The best of everything is here, from the world famous restaurant French Laundry to luxurious natural spas to top-notch
wineries of all shapes and sizes.
