San Francisco
San Francisco has the usual incredible views, great shopping, street entertainers,
wild crazy China Town with it's raw meat and food market complete with softball
sized black frogs, bizarre live fish, live turtles, whole chickens and ducks in
the windows, and every kind of disgusting, dried sea creature and animal imaginable.
Kids get bored in a day or two; Kelly and I could stay a year and still love it.
The world famous Sea Lions were gone for the season, which was a huge disappointment.
Made the biggest navigational mistake of the trip by taking highway 1 North out
of San Francisco on our way to the Russian River. After six terrifying hours of
15 mph, hairpin turns, steep brake smoking unmarked descents, bad roads, etc,
we gave up, cut over to Highway 101, and discovered we were only 40 miles from
San Francisco. Big rv'ers do NOT take 1 North out of the city
ever.

California offers such diverse flora and fauna that a vacation to the west coast is nothing but memorable. The pacific ocean is full of life and there is no better way to see its beauty from one end of California to the other than the Pacific Coast Highway (SR 1). San Francisco's China Town is definitely a must see with its grocery stores, shopping, and people from all walks of life. Hotels and restaurants in San Francisco are well priced and generally of high quality. Vacation the California coast and San Francisco.
Travel info - There is definitely no RV parking in the city of San Francisco. We stayed at an RV park about four miles from downtown and for a fee they had a shuttle service to several stops around the city. Map location of San Francisco.
