Great places to bring friends to in San Francisco?

Question by kitty purry: Great places to bring friends to in San Francisco?
I have friends who are coming this weekend to visit. They have all been here before, so they’ve done the “touristy” thing of going to the Golden Gate Bridge, hanging out by Fisherman’s Wharf and the Pier, etc. I was wondering if there were any other fun things you can suggest for us to do in the city. And which not-too-expensive food places would you suggest I bring them to? (something along the lines of Bi-Rite, Ike’s, etc)
Thanks!

Answer by nichole9853
You shouldn’t visit the IMAX in New Orleans. It is nice, but it’s a waste of time if you’ve ever been to a movie theater. But as long as your gettung early starts you should be able to visit all the places you want to see.

Should I write my friend’s name in Chinese? Do I have to?

Question by Wowszers That’s Funny! =]: Should I write my friend’s name in Chinese? Do I have to?
I have a penpal and we’re really great friends now. I want to send her a letter with a small light gift inside. Like a little necklace. I have an international stamp but is it okay if I add a forever stamp too just in case it weighs a little more? The post is closed on sundays and I can’t magically weigh it myself and I want to drop it in the mailbox before I put it off and forget for another week

Also I always called her by her English name because that’s what she likes to be called. She’s only showed me her real name twice.

It’s 蔡侑陵. She only told me it in characters. My Chinese is crap and I don’t like using google translate for names and such in case it’s wrong. I do know her last name is Tsai. But should I go ahead and write in Chinese characters her name on the envelope? My Chinese writing isn’t impressive either so I’m afraid it’ll look weird and illegible. I don’t want to ask her to write out her whole name in English because it’s a surprise for her birthday and she’s on vacation. I know her address because she gave it to me before when we discussed wanting to send letters 2 months ago but got attached to chatting on MSN. She lives in Taiwan. So maybe someone can translate her first name, who actually knows Chinese. Also would they know to send it to her if it’s in English? I only ever sent a letter/package twice. To Singapore and Korea, but I thought things might be done differently.

Best answer:

Answer by Gabe
English version of first name, last name should be fine. The post delivery person will recognize the family name even if it’s written in English letters. So, for example, if her English name she likes is Burt, then address it to Burt Tsai. Her family will either know which of them is Burt or which of them has an English-speaking friend.

I have family in Taiwan who don’t really know any English but would receive such a letter without confusion.

The spelling of her Chinese name in English letters would be Tsai Yu-Ling (Cai4 You4ling2 in mainland pinyin).

If it’s important enough that you can’t wait until Monday to weigh it (and risk forgetting), then it’s probably important enough to justify the cost of an extra stamp.

California Road Trip for two teen best friends?

Question by Thomas Donohue: California Road Trip for two teen best friends?
My best friend and I want to go on a vacation together. We’re both currently 18, but we still need time to save for the trip so it will be another year or so before we take the trip. We live on Long Island in New York and want to experience a dramatically different landscape and we think California is just the ticket.
I have already done some research and have picked out a few spots I definitely want to check out, but several questions remain about how much time I should dedicate to each destination and the economics of the whole endeavor – we’re both students and are on a relatively tight budget. I know we wont be able to do everything I’ve picked and I’d like some advice on what to do and what to skip. We’d like to balance serene natural experiences with exciting city adventures. As far as nightlife goes, we not into dance clubs and would prefer live music venues. Some suggestions for each city listed would be greatly appreciated. We love rock and alternative music. I also have an obsession with french fries. If you know of any great places for french fries along our journey please share them with me. When we go to the national parks we would camp but when in the bigger cities we could also use some suggestions for cool hotels that arent too pricey.
Here are the places I would like to visit.
San Diego
Torrey Pines State Reserve
Los Angeles
Channel Islands National Park
Hearst Castle
Big Sur
Monterey
Santa Cruz
San Francisco
Point Reyes National Seashore
Yosemite
Lake Tahoe
Mendocino
Arcata
Redwood National Park
In the daytime we would like to check out parks, zoos, art galleries and museums, as well as architectural landmarks and interesting neighborhoods. Any points of interest that you could contribute for any of these destinations would be greatly appreciated, I’m just trying to gather as much information as possible.

Answer by LEW
That’s quite a list and will take a long time. Cali’s a big state. You might want to do the Pacific Coast Highway and see where you can detour from there. Generally people break up their Cali trips into NoCal and SoCal and usually they’re done on separate occasions because people in the US don’t get long vacation periods. Really, it’s a big state.

Get AAA to map out a trip for you–or do it yourself on Mapquest.com–and you’ll see what I mean. I’ve gone to many, but not all the places you list, but over 5 separate trips, each lasting from 6 to 15 days. I’d pick a route–like PCH as mentioned above–and see where it takes me. We spent a day at the Hearst Castle alone.

Good luck.

My friends and I are going to Sentosa, in Singapore, for about 5 hours, in a week. What should we do there?

Question by grouchypiggy: My friends and I are going to Sentosa, in Singapore, for about 5 hours, in a week. What should we do there?
We are aged 13, and have a budget of $ 50 per person. We would like to stay dry. We will be going there in the afternoon.
We are budgeting S$ 50 per person, and there are four of us. We are aged 13, and we are Singaporean, so we’ve visited the island before, just never together, without our parents. We’d like to make the experience memorable.

Best answer:

Answer by Artoro, the Hat/Hdphone Spyman
Oh! !! you just miss the 12 years old children concession. By the way where are you from, Malaysia or Indonesia? $ 50 in US is good enough for the day.

Just as you visit a new island, take Sentosa Bus from Tiong Bahru Complex, Orchard Road or at Cable Car Tower and purchase your computerised ticket at Entrance stop-over. Decide those places to visit & pay for them in advance at discount. Free bus & monorail on the island…….follow the 3 routes to see the travel-points. Must visit places: Wax museum, Siloso Beach, Water World, Musical Fountain, Gun museum, all in booklet & map for free. Just make your pre-choice & do your bus hopping after the full train ride. 5 hrs is good enough from 4-9pm seeing the day & night attractions. Happy walking.
