On Friday, December 26:
1. Academy of Sciences ( may want to do this next time)- we are going to pass because the crowds are just crazy.
2. Fortune Cookie Factory (Chinatown) – we did do this and itis very interesting to see a functional fortune cookie factory. The owner was very cordial.
3. Coit Tower – you have to visit this place, and especially if you have time go up the tower, It costs $5, but the views are amazing. Even from the base the views are amazing. At night the few times we drove by the tower has lights in red.
