Do bring a jacket / sweater with you no matter what the temperature may be - when the fog rolls in it’s positively *freezing*! 😂 That’s the only reason they sell so many (horrible) SF sweatshirts in China Town. (A must do too. walk around - walk everywhere - it’s a great way to experience the City.) Ballpark. Wine. Bay Boat ride. Sausalito day trip via boat. Enjoy!

Don’t leave anything in your car anywhere. Especially at trailheads/parking lots. Stay away from Tenderloin. Hike around the Golden Gate.

Alcatraz is pretty cool. Book early. Also those little yellow cars you’ll see in the touristy areas, forgot the company name.

If you want to get a bit into neighborhoods, my go-tos for restaurants are Valencia Street in the Mission and Cortland in Bernal. If you like urban “hikes” the views from the top of Bernal are my favorite.

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
