No visit to S an Francisco would be complete without a ride on one of the cable cars. Three cable car r outes trav erse the downtown ar ea. The most scenic is the Powell-Hyde line, star ting off at P owell and Market and ending at the turnaround by Ghirardelli Square. Next is the Powell- Mason line, which also begins at P owell and M arket and then meanders thr ough North B each, ending proworld peru on the east side of Fisherman s Wharf. The third is the California Street line that leav es from Market and California, cr ests at N ob H ill, and ends abr uptly at Van N ess A venue. The queues to board the Powell Street cars at the turnar ounds, at either end, can be daunting; but if you don t board there, you may not get on. Tickets ar e $5 one-way (free for kids under 5 and only $1 befor e 7am and after 9pm), making those M uni passes look even better.

moms or dads out and about pushing strollers and buying the morning paper, or local urbanites popping into P eet s Coffee & Tea for a double latte before hopping on the bus downtown. If you have the time, head to The Grove (p. 136), grab a cup of joe and maybe some oatmeal for the kids, and enjoy the local scene. If you got a late start, or if the family linger ed over breakfast at your hotel, skip this stop and head straight to no. 2.
