Who doesn't love San Francisco? Beautiful, cultural and buzzing with the energy of the many new residents flocking to the City for new startups, I like to drop in for a couple of days every so often for a dose of it (which is why I took a spontaneous trip Jan 1!). You can read the NY Times "
36 hours in San Francisco" or just walk the City and enjoy the beautiful homes, the hills, the views, the restaurants, the parks, the art galleries, the markets....
