| Destination: |

Believe it or not, San Francisco used to have a downtown RV park,
but alas, that park was leveled and replaced by a large apartment
development. The closest parks to San Francisco are in Pacifica
(south) and Novato
(north). We went south and stayed at the San
Francisco RV Resort in Pacifica. |

| About: |
Pacifica
is a small beach community just 15 minutes south of San Francisco.
The RV park is located off the first Pacifica exit off Highway 1
(Palmetto Avenue) and overlooks the Pacific ocean from high atop
a cliff. The ocean front spots have breathtaking views, the park
itself is clean, and the laundry facilities are satisfactory. The
store has more stuff than most, and lots of tacky San Francisco
souvenirs. |

amenities: |
A
large Safeway supermarket is within walking distance of the park.
Also located at this shopping center is an amazing Italian deli
– Columbo's, which sells fantastic breads, cheeses and pastas.
There’s also a really good butcher (Save More Meat) and a
Bank of American terminal. There’s an internet café
around the corner, it doesn’t have WIFI, just a public terminal.

Just
a few miles north up 280 is the Serramonte Shopping Center that
has not one, but two Targets, a Macy’s, Home Depot as well
as many other stores that you need and don’t need. |

haunts: |
We
had a fabulous meal at Nona’s Kitchen ( 5450 Coast Hwy Pacifica
, CA 94044 Phone: (650) 557-1455) located off Highway 1 on the right.
The menu was very eclectic and the food was delicious. It’s
a small and homey gourmet joint, with a great wine list as well.
A good friend of mine who lives in Pacifica, also highly recommends
Tama’s Chinese restaurant, which is right next door to Columbo’s
Deli. |

| Where
for art thou WIFI?: |
There
are two Starbuck's
in Pacifica with T-Mobile Hot Spots, and there are many, many
locations to choose from in San Francisco.

| Gyms: |
There are tons of gyms in San Francisco including Bally’s,
Crunch, 24Hour Fitness, LA Sports Club, etc. so I never made it
to a local gym. There are two gyms in Pacifica that I saw, a 24Hour
Fitness and a local gym near Nona’s Kitchen. |
