Going on a well-deserved vacation in a couple of weeks. I am going to go home for a few days and I am also going to San Francisco.
Part I: Chattanooga
Taking Dana to Chattanooga to stay at the Chattanooga Choo-Choo over a weekend. We are going to stay in one of the Victorian Train Cars and do much of the “tourist” activities on Lookout Mountain.
Part II: Huntsville
Going to Huntsville for a Monday afternoon before flying out on a very early Tuesday morning.
Part III: San Francisco
I don’t care too much for air travel …well, the part before take-off. Getting to the airport, getting through security, getting on the plane and I have to change planes in Charlotte both ways. I decided to rent a car since my hotel is near SFO at the Bay Landing Hotel. I plan to go down to the San Jose area. I may take public transportation to SF since I heard that parking near the Wharf is limited and metered. I am going to drive across the Golden Gate Bridge, however, there is a toll getting back into SF over the GG Bridge… cheesy!
Flying to San Francisco on Tuesday the 19th of August for 3 days/2 nights. Leaving early on Tuesday and coming back on a red-eye flight on Thursday to maximize my time in SF. I am going to go to the Apple HQ in Cupertino, the Intel Museum, possibly DigiBarn Computer Museum or the Computer History Museaum, and Silicon Valley.
On Wednesday the 20th of August, off to Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Bridge, and Alcatraz Island.
On Thursday the 21st of August, I am not completely sure… hopefully, play this one by ear. Flight doesn’t leave until 10:30 or so, so I have all day to get to the airport and drop off my rental car.
Part IV: Huntsville
Getting back on Friday morning, I am going to spend the rest of the weekend in HSV with my Mom and visiting friends, just there an additional day. I will have plenty of pictures and vids to share. Coming back to Alpharetta on Sunday…
