Road Trip USA Getaways: San Francisco: Bay Area Driving Adventures Beyond the Metro Area
When city-weary drivers plan out-of-town escapes, Road Trip USA Getaways: San Francisco is all they need. In the spirit of Moon's best-selling Road Trip USA, this new portable, user-friendly, map-based guide offers diverse daytrips and weekend sojourns, including one to the hot springs and trendsetting restaurants in the wine country and another to wild west kitsch and down-home cooking in the Sierra gold country. The guide also points toward Nevada for the highcountry diners, paddlewheel cruises, and world-class ski resorts of Lake Tahoe. Author Jamie Jensen also proposes outings along Highway 1, with stops to the north at sites such as Glass Beach, where brightly colored bits and pieces of sand-washed glass from a former glass factory now sparkle on the shore. Heading southward, the road leads to the annual mating competition among hundreds of aggressive male elephant seals. Travelers will also enjoy opportunities to sample roadside Americana - old-fashioned ice-cream parlors, seaside fish-and-chips joints, and pick-your-own-produce farms as far afield as Redwood and Yosemite national parks
