I rented in San Francisco with my family last October. We had a beautiful house for half the price a hotel would have cost us, plus a lot more space. The only thing to watch for in SFO is that a lot of the houses don't seem to have enough bathrooms to match the number of bedrooms. You wouldn't believe the number of 4 bedroom houses with ONE bathroom. It must be some historical thing but we definitely needed more than one for the seven of us. :)runnergirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890200290758835509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-23346357800567071632013-03-14T12:38:19.361-07:002013-03-14T12:38:19.361-07:00Also, ditto on San Luis Obispo.

My favorite thing I've done there is renting bikes and riding across the Golden Gate Bridge down to Sausalito. So stinkin' cool. You can rent the bikes at Fisherman's Wharf and they tell you the route to go to get to Sausalito and then you take a ferry back to the Wharf and turn in your bike. So fun!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-81082060865054476882013-03-13T20:07:27.518-07:002013-03-13T20:07:27.518-07:00I live in SF and recommend you check out the Marin...I live in SF and recommend you check out the Marin Headlands for some absolutely amazing trail runs. It's just across the Golden Gate Bridge and offers spectacular views of the ocean/city, depending on which trail you take. My favorite is the Coastal Trail starting from Tennessee Valley and continuing to Muir Beach. Trust me, you won't regret it. I also drive down to Carmel quite a bit and would also suggest stopping in Santa Cruz at the boardwalk, and at the many farmers' markets down hwy 1.

If you can at all swing it, spend more time driving to Southern California, and fly to Vegas. Driving across the state is seriously boring, and ungodly hot in the summer.<br /><br />I would avoid staying in Fisherman's Wharf, as it is overpriced and the area is just so crowded. I personally love the Kabuki in Japantown, and you can get anywhere by Muni from there. Muni gets a lot of hate locally, but it's by far better than getting anywhere in the city by car. Absolutely do not miss getting a run in along the Embarcadero and up to the Golden Gate Bridge. Alcatraz is always fun for the kids, and it's a great reason to get out on the water for the ferry ride over. Chinatown is also a don't miss (though for the life of me I can't figure out why they have more sushi restaurants there than in Japantown). I also agree that Muir Woods are more than worth the trip if your California trip doesn't already include a visit to the Sierras.<br /><br />In between SF and Monterey is Santa Cruz, and the Boardwalk, fun in it's own retro kind of way. If you like roller coasters, you have to ride the Giant Dipper.<br /><br />If you stay in Cambria you'll only kick yourself that you're not staying longer, it's a great home base to explore Big Sur. I'd stay in Monterey since it's less expensive than Carmel, and you wouldn't want to miss the aquarium. It's also fun to rent bikes and ride from Cannery Row down past Pacific Grove(makes a great run too). Carmel makes a nice stop for a few hours of shopping and a meal.<br /><br />I've lived here my whole life and I just never get tired of the coast.sherijunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12256955399628922242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-56830401695279413122013-03-12T13:34:27.464-07:002013-03-12T13:34:27.464-07:00My vote for a race - the Mermaid Triathlon in Capi...My vote for a race - the Mermaid Triathlon in Capitola. It's at the beginning of October - I don't know exactly when you were planning to take your vacation, but having lived in Northern CA most of my life, I will second some of the comments I've seen on here about the fog - you are much more likely to get better weather if you wait until September/October for your trip!!! The Mermaid events are EXTREMELY well-done - well staffed, well supported, and well organized. They have a friends & family group for non-competitors, and then they have the Olympic distance and various age groups for the sprint distance. I did the sprint distance as my first triathlon last year - if it was not for all of the training I put in with Team Mermaid prior to the event, I would have been terrified, but I was not. I dove into the Pacific Ocean calm and collected and ready to race. :-) I always laugh at my race pictures because I never see the cameras, and I always wonder how anyone can see them in time to pose for them - that day was no exception with one caveat: I didn't see the cameras, but I was smiling in every picture they took of me, that's how much I loved the day and the entire event from start to finish. I don't know how many people can say that about their first triathlon, but if there's a race worth traveling for - it's this one. (I am considering doing the Olympic distance this year, but I'll have to see how it fits in with training for my first full - hoping to get into the Marine Corps in a couple weeks!!)Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08174535450361949648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433152851906592254.post-78154186289148159912013-03-12T13:21:15.783-07:002013-03-12T13:21:15.783-07:00I have lived in SF, San Luis Obispo and now Orange...I have lived in SF, San Luis Obispo and now Orange County. MY suggestions are don't miss Big Sur. You'll regret it. Carmel is cute and worthy of stopping for lunch and a walk but I recommend you stay in San Luis Obispo. It's a college town that has one of the best farmers markets every thursday night. There is pretty much always something rad going on and there is great food. You are like 5 minutes from the ocean too.
