Ask HN: I'm in San Francisco for 36 hours – how can I make the most of my time?

Take a Waymo!

My son (12) and I had an amazing time in SFO. We’re baseball fanatics and are slowly visiting all of the parks… we caught a few games. One day we walked from South Beach and Oracle Park and walked along the shoreline to the Golden Gate Bridge. Then went through the park and took the bus back from somewhere near Golden Gate Park. We did the cable car and went to Chinatown before heading back. The farmers market at the ferry terminal is awesome too.

Our last day we had a redeye home… we stored our bags at the hotel and took the N line from Caltrain all the way to Ocean Beach. It was beautiful out there, and we spotted some places to check out on the way back.

Honestly, it’s a great city to explore. That was one of my favorite trips. Have fun whatever you do.

Anywhere, it's just for the experience.

I posted a bunch of ideas there.

See if it can make it down the very curvy Lombard Street.
