i'll be in SF for WWDC, but planning on taking a tour of the town the weekend before the conference starts.

What are some must-visit, must-do things in the bay?

I was there about a month ago and I had never been to SF. So I was a tourist (which I usually hate) and took to double decker bus tour around the city. It took all morning to make the loop but it was a great way to see the city. There are several different companies that run and we got on at Union Square. Have Fun!

Theres a ton of random things to do out here. It depends on what you like but heres a few ideas:

If you're a foodie, check out off the grid SF (http://offthegridsf.com/calendar). Its a gathering of food trucks which is pretty fun to do. They'll be around fort mason that Friday.

I think the Union Street Fair is that weekend too.

Other Touristy Things: - Go to the Golden Gate park, you can check out The Academy of Science and/or The Exploratorium

- Rent a bike and cross the golden gate bridge or take the Ferry over to Alcatraz (from pier 41).

- Go shopping at Downtown, Haight, Metreon(?) etc

- Theres always some good music stuff going on too. Just pick up a free copy of the Guardian or any of the other weeklies.
