    Getting TO/AROUND: BART is fantastic, really easy to use and effecient. Tickets are sold from automatic despensers with easy to read price destinations. Locals are very freindly and willing to help visitors find their way. Getting into San Francisco from the Oakland airport was very easy and quick. Avoid BART at night, it can be a little scary. Read my danger tip.

    Getting TO/AROUND: Jet Blue was great. Effecient, clean, friendly, and cheap.
    Absolutely nothing to complain about. Will definatley fly them again. It was about $100 RT from Long Beach to Oakland, and getting from Oakland to SF was very inexpensive and easy. Check out their lamenated Pilates cards that are in the seat pocket along with the inflight magazine. Very progressive with witty commentary copy.

     We are visiting SF in late Jan and have booked a place near Ghirardelli Square. We are hoping it is a great place. Tell me more about the MARINA and the places to go. 2 Australians.
