You in San Francisco and Bored on a Wednesday? We Got You Covered (Unless You're REALLY Boring)
Let's face it, San Francisco on a Wednesday can be a tricky beast. Fisherman's Wharf is bustling, but you've seen those sourdough bread guys, like, a million times. Alcatraz is tempting, but escaping prison is a real time commitment (and let's be honest, probably frowned upon these days). Fear not, weary traveler/resident/existentially-challenged individual! There's more to this city than meets the eye (or should we say fogged-in view).
