You should give them some slack." It sounds to me like it was my fault for not giving that person "slack" for running late, and it was my fault for trusting that they open when they say they open. I'm sure they're great; but if it matters for you to get something early, just know that there is a possibility that it may not be open.

I spent 2 hours there and could have stayed longer, but there was a schedule to stick to. It's cool that it's a museum about Walt and his life. How the company came to be.

It is basically the…read moresame as I remembered which is good because this is a fine museum that honors the life of an American icon. I would budget 2 hours to go through it all as it chronicles Walt's life from birth to death and offers many exhibits telling the story. It shows his many innovations from creating characters like Mickey, Donald, etc., his advancement of filmography becoming the winner of more Oscars than anyone in history (including the present) to the creation of Disneyland and his vision of Disney World. Today his entertainment empire is still with us and bigger than ever. Come here to learn the real story of his life. You will find it both interesting and enjoyable. Besides coming here will allow you to visit the beautiful Presidio which overlooks the Bay and the GG bridge.

These street cars are the star of the attraction and definitely worth the ride. For $5.70 one can buy an all-day Muni pass which allows you to ride these cars along with all other transit EXCEPT the cable cars. These cars are a collection of preserved vehicles from the '30s to '50s. Each one was given from a city in the US. They were originally brought to San Francisco to substitute for the cable cars when the c.c. Went under major renovation back in the '80s. The street cars became a hit with locals and tourists and are now a part of historic transit systems in San Francisco. The museum is small but detailed. It is open limited hours and run by a team of volunteers. They are passionate about these street cars and it shows. They are very detailed oriented but expect a pause every 10 minutes when a street car goes rolling by. The museum is free with a suggested $5 donation. It will only take about 30 minutes to cover it but a great stop if a rail fan.

I'm not sure about parking bc we only come here on foot when we're doing what I call "urban hiking"... we like to hike our own city on lazy days. This is on one of our routes. It's got very clean restrooms and a cute gift shop. I think I I just like it bc we're used to coming through here and it smells good lol like, it's got its own unique scent and vibe. I'd recommend stopping by if you're a local. If you're a tourist and you are interested in this type of thing, for sure. It's a pretty educational and cool little spot.

This mission held its first mass just one week before the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Today all that remains is the chapel, a couple of small rooms attached and a portion of the cemetery. The majority of the complex is long gone, buried beneath the city that built up around it. The chapel has been restored and could be used today. The alters, wooden pews and decor resemble what this church may have looked like in its prime over 200 years ago. Today it sits in the shadows of the Basillica. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for kids and seniors. The site can be easily toured in under an hour. However, to get the full story one may want to spend some more time.

They have a donation box at the exit of the museum. The current exhibit is titled "Neon as Soulcraft", which was my first time seeing an entire exhibit devoted to neon lights. As someone who likes reading descriptions at museums, I spent about 30 minutes, so it's something that won't take too long. I really enjoyed the combination of art and science, and appreciated how they provided background information on the artists and their inspiration. I won't go too in depth so that you can check out the exhibit for yourself! *Verdict: The lady at the entrance was so friendly! She took the time to explain what "Pay What You Can Wednesdays" was and offered to answer any questions. There's a new exhibit every few months, so I look forward to coming back in the future!

Did I need to drink Earl Grey in a wide-brimmed pink fascinator? Absolutely. * The Vibe: Mismatched floral china, lace everywhere, and zero stuffy high-tea snootiness. It's just pure, comfortable fun. * The Food: Warm scones with thick clotted cream and jam that will make you weep happy tears. Plus a tower of cute little finger sandwiches (the cucumber cream cheese and egg salad were elite). The Shepherds Pie was a little dry and could have used a little more Worcestershire sauce. * The Tea: A massive menu of brews, served piping hot in adorable teapots. Bring your besties, put on the silliest hat you can find, and stuff your face with scones. Just make a reservation first because this tiny gem fills up fast! Overall 4 solid stars!

I was just dropping money left and right for kids museums that were free for us. Sigh. Lesson of the trip: check your memberships! A lot of the exhibits were broken or not working, which was a bummer, but there was plenty of stuff for us to look at, and we didn't even see it all. Some highlights for the kids were the interactive laser table, the room where everything has no color unless you use a white light flashlight (they were in there FOREVER), and the cow eye dissection (which also left us all a little queasy...). We took too long getting brunch at the Ferry Building, so we didn't have enough time to explore it all, but I'm sure we'll return when we come up again.
