for those who replied favorable to my suggestions for things to do in san
francisco, here are some things in the bay area that shouldnt be overlooked.

- little america (santa clara)(not disneyland, but almost as good)
- marine world(?) (near san jose)(havent been there myself)
- sausilito and the rest of marin county (just over the golden gate bridge)
- mt tamalpais (marin)
- mendacino (not too far north of san francisco)(quaint artistic town)
- redwood forest north of marin (i love trees)
- monterey area (if you have the time, south of san jose)(a great area)
- san simeon/hearst castle (if you have the time, south of monterey)(mind-
  boogling! truly! )
- oakland lds temple (!)
- bezerekly
- bart (bay area rapid transit)(to help you get around)
- rosecrutions(?) (near san jose)
- winchester mystery house (san jose)(a must see!!!!!)
- good view of the sf airport from san bruno
- san mateo bridge (starts off like a regular bridge then drops to water level
  for the majority of its 7mile length. strange feeling)
- dont forget the dumbarton and bay bridges
- i think theres a winery in los altos, or some place near there
- there is a shopping center in san jose, i think its called eastridge (or
  something like that), that is the biggest shopping center and one of the
  most unusually designed ones i have ever seen
- roseville flea market (near san jose)(has an auction, fresh produce, recyled
  section, and new item section)
- restaurants to numerous to name. best bet is to buy one of the guide books
  for the area that can be found in any bookstore.
- palo alto has the darndest paintings on the sides of some of its buildings.
  things like a woman walking her duck, two catburglers trying to escape from
  a building. all of the paintings (dont know how many, at least a dozen) are
  painted so realistically you'll be doing a lot of double takes.
- palo alto book service (they handle all of the ayn rand books, including
  compilations of the objectivist newsletter and the ayn rand newsletter. 
  there is also 3 cassettes of ayn rands lectures available.

i just have one question - why did i leave there?

have fun!
