Love to park under the bridge at Fort Point and take a 10 minute uphill walk to the bridge. Or sometimes I park up top , in one of the two lots, and then walk half way across the bridge to experience the incredible dynamics of the Ocean meeting the Bay and this beautiful bridge being the gateway to SF :-)

SAN FRANCISCO BALLET
Various Ballets though out the year. The perform at the War Memorial Opera House located in the Civic Center area. Great places to eat close by in Hayes Valley. I would either Uber/ Lyft or take West Portal street car ,depending on time of day and if eating first, when going to the Ballet. When returning I would use Uber/Lyft home.
A top rated ballet company. It is full of life and interesting choreography .
