I finally made it to a two week vacation, I wasn't sure if I would be able to take the time off due to business demands, but I am. I just booked a last minute deal to San Francisco and wondered if anybody has suggestions of what to see while I am there? Alcatraz is a definite. Is Fisherman's Wharf worth taking a look at?
