Our ACT Theater has a matinee on Wednesday and Sunday everytime they have a performance running! They have a season each year with 6 or 7 wonderful Plays! Their last Play of the 2015 season starts on May 25 and runs to June 12th! If you are in town during their 2016-17 season, I would google them and see their 7 offerings and plan on seeing a Play or two when you are in SF! To tell you a secret, very often you can get a last minute ticket! Worth it!

You can see the Golden Gate Bridge in many ways: I have already suggested that you take a Ferry from the Ferry Building. But, you can walk across our Bridge. You can also take a bicycle across our Bridge! If you plan on going to the Muir Woods from SF you will be crossing the Golden Gate Bridge in your Car. Dont expect a teller at the Toll Booth. Our Tolls are automated now. Your car rental company will give you the Cost of the Toll or you will be sent an invoice for it,I think! There are several bicycle rental companies near Fisherman's Wharf where you can rent a regular or electric bicycle for your journey, if you decide to "bike it".

You can start visiting the Park by entering at 9th Avenue and visiting the Botanical Gardens, first. You can also enter the Park by walking down Haight Street to the end! Lucky you, you also have the choice of parking inside the deYoung Museum parking Garage (enter on Fulton Street). Then you can have a light lunch at the Museum, go next door to the Japanese Tea Garden and then cross by foot over to the Academy of Science Museum! For those of you who want to see the Buffalos or the Shakespeare Garden, you will need to do some driving or hiking! Our Golden Gate Park is a Masterpiece!
