Anders, our grandfather, immigrated to America in 1921 and settled in San Francisco working as a long-shore man on the docks close to Pier 39. My dad was born in San Francisco at Saint Luke�s Hospital in 1938. Us kids were born at UCSF Medical Center (University California San Francisco).

We know this town. We love this town. Come with us and we'll show you all the best places. It will be a great adventure!

For example...

Lombard is a great street and one of the crookedest. Did you know it's not the most crooked. Come to Portero Hill and drive down Vermont Street. It's a great time with beautiful views of the bay and Twin Peaks.

A good beach is Aquatic Park, but you will meet every single tourist on their San Francisco vacation. Don�t get me wrong, this is a nice little bay beach right in the heart of the City. Just down from Pier 39 near Hyde Street Pier it is watched over by the Maritime Museum and Ghirardelli Square. There are tons of great touristy things to do here.

A great beach is East Beach or known in the City as China Beach over in Pacific Heights in the Marina District. Visit the Exploratorium and Crissy Field on your way to this family friendly beach. Save some money and have a barbecue on the grills in he picnic area. Safe for the kids with lifeguards and shallow waters on soft fine bay sand. China Beach is real close to the Golden Gate Bridge and has fantastic views of he bay, Marin and of course the famous Golden Gate.
