San Francisco is a fun city with a lot to see and do. Try to spend some time outside of the Moscone Center and see some of the sights in San Francisco. You want to be able to talk to non-geeks about your trip. Maybe get in early or leave late to have a couple days to see things.
Some of the things to do there:
* Cable Cars (get a hotel on their routes and commute every day - the western most cable car route is like a thrill ride - great sights, very steep and scary)
* Golden Gate Bridge (rent a bike and drive over the bridge and back)
* Wharf / Pier 39 - See the Sea Lions.
* Lombard Street - the curviest street in the world
* Alcatraz Prison - on an island north of the wharf. Great evening tours.
* Baseball games - Sun afternoon, June 7: Baltimore Orioles @ Oakland A's, Fri night, June 12: Oakland A's @ San Francisco Giants
* In the vicinity: Oakland, San Jose and the Secoya trees, largest trees in the world (can drive a car through one of them!)
