TOP 10 FAMILY FUN ADVENTURES IN SAN FRANCISCO

(from the 8th edition of Weekend Adventures in San Francisco & Northern California)

  • Enjoy a short, scenic boat ride over, then wander the prison cell blocks at Alcatraz
  • Stroll through Chinatown and lunch in one of the old-time, curtain-enclosed booths at Far East Cafe
  • Climb all over the collection of historical vessels moored at Hyde Street Pier
  • Sightsee aboard a bright-red 1955 Mack fire engine
  • Have fun and learn about science at the same time at the cavernous Exploratorium
  • Take a whirl on an antique carrousel in Golden Gate Park, then frolic for a while at adjacent Children's Playground--the first public playground in a U.S. park
  • Get a great kid's meal served in a cardboard classic car and play an oldie but goodie for two bits on a mini-jukebox at Mel's Drive-In (did you know jukeboxes were invented in San Francisco in 1888?)
  • Spend an afternoon at the San Francisco Zoo , which has a special Children's Zoo and another antique carousel
  • Stuff a souvenir bear at the Basic Brown Bear Factory
  • Stuff yourself with the best ice cream sundae ever at the Ghirardelli Chocolate Manufactory in Ghirardelli Square
