A7. October in San Francisco is an amazing time to visit. The weather is consistently warm (by San Francisco standards) and sunny. Some amazing events take place as well like #WharfFest, @FleetWeekSF, and the #ItalianHeritageDayParade #travelskills

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A6 So, we're just choosing a few here? Start at the bottom and work your way to the top--from the mountains to the desert, and skiing to @AlcatrazIsland, we'd zigzag our way thru this paradise on a hoverboard, if it were possible. #travelskills

Look for date shakes in Southern California. Not as easy to find anymore. Shield's Date Garden in Indio (near Palm Desert & Palm Springs) provides a well-loved version. https://t.co/okO0hyHG67 #travelskills

Food: Anywhere that serves avocado. Drink: Anywhere with a view. Food isn't always great, but the view makes up for it. California is beautiful. Vacationers: you'll spend a lot of time in traffic so plan to sit on a beach for a long time. #TravelSkills https://t.co/W8cfJxFSdX
