Inspired by this thread, here is a challenge for you all: Make a list of the "top ten" things for a visitor to do while in your town. And by "top ten," I mean any ten things that you think are representative, informative, educational, exciting, or whatever you like. Just your recommendations to a visitor, based on your vast knowledge of local stuff. If you don't want to do your home town, do any other place that you know well enough to feel you can recommend stuff to do. Maybe we'll all learn something! |

1. Fisherman's Wharf.
2. Alcatraz
3. Giants Game. (AT&T PARK)
4. Coit Tower
5. Ride the Cable Cars. There are 3 lines
