If your
travel plans allow you to spend extra time in San Francisco before or after the convention,
or if you will be traveling with family/friends who may not be attending the
convention, there is a wide range of sightseeing activities available in the Bay
Area.
Activities have been sorted according to category, and links provided to
individual sights/attractions.
Some
activities are within easy walking distance of the convention hotel. For others, you will need to drive (if
renting a car) or use public transportation.
We hope
that you enjoy your stay in San
Francisco, and can take some time to visit at least a few
of its many attractions!

Public
transportation: the San Francisco
Municipal Transportation Agency (aka MUNI) can take you virtually anywhere in
San
Francisco.
To plan your trip, visit their website at http://www.sfmta.com/cms/home/sfmta.php and click on Plan a trip (at
511.org). The site will tell you
what bus line to take, provide schedules, and advise of the correct fare. If your travels take you beyond the city
limits, 511.org will also advise you of additional forms of public
transportation available (i.e. ferries, trains,
etc.)

Driving
directions: we recommend the use
of Google Maps (http://maps.google.com) to obtain driving directions
from the convention hotel. Use 555 North Point Street, San
Francisco CA 94133 as the starting address for
your trip. Additionally, most of
the attraction websites will provide a link for driving directions to their
location.
