Something mousepod brought us to when we were there that was a unique thing to see was the Musee Mechanique at Pier 45. It's a warehouse full of vintage coin operated mechanical arcade machines. Animated music boxes, creepy fortune telling machines, mechanically animated dioramas of excutions. All restored and operable. Really nifty place.

Excellent suggestion, GD. If I were taking you around my old stomping grounds, we'd do a a walking tour of Victorian SF.

We'd have tea at the Japanese Tea Gardens in Golden Gate Park. You can still do that, right?

We might have a crab cocktail on the street by Fisherman's Wharf. We'd skip the shopping down there. Instead, we'd go to Chinatown (Grant Avenue, U.S.A., San-Fran-cis-co!) with 10 bucks in our pockets to blow on stuff and have dim sum for lunch. When my kids were in elementary school, we did exactly that. They still talk about how.much.fun.stuff. they could buy in Chinatown for $5.

Okay, that's really cool. I'm going to have to check that out next time I visit my Dad.

We saw that. I second checking it out.

We also wandered around Little Italy and found a great cafe as well as a delicious hole in the wall Italian place. Couldn't tell you where they were or what they were called to save my life though.

Hey guys... any idea what admission is for this? The website doesn't say, but I'm thinking of going there next week.
