Parks & Nature

Inside a typical botanical garden is a not-so-typical bonsai garden. Often there are passionate volunteers on-site who you can ask all the questions that can come from these fruiting and flowering tiny giants. This is a mid-day activity, as it is often close early morning and evenings.

Hiking and biking trails, many dog friendly. If you are comfortable hiking, I recommend the Sunset trail to commune with steams and brush. For a classic skylines view of San Francisco Bay, I recommend Monument Hike (short, easy and elevated)

Not just any movie theater. Make sure to see a new release and get to see a cool, historic theater (with an organ).
