I get it. I'm lucky enough most of my family is here but I'd be super down if they weren't. Are you going to come to Thanksgiving? May is my aunt, she's a really good cook.
Ummmm there is an amazing planetarium and science museum here. I like hanging out at the Wharf, I watch the sea lions on my breaks at work. I'm not saying you could scale the Golden Gate Bridge but I'm also not NOT saying do that.
