## Detailed Day Plans
> **Option to look into — Alcatraz:** ferry from Pier 33, ~2.5–3 hrs round trip. No car needed. If the group wants it, best slotted into the **Sep 21 morning** (BART day) — reach Pier 33 via the F-line streetcar, then do downtown after. This avoids clashing with the Sep 20 morning, which Marin Headlands wants for the pre-fog bridge view. **Sells out weeks ahead — reserve early.**
> **Mondays:** some museums (incl. the de Young) are closed — check before counting on them Sep 21.
### Sep 20 — San Francisco: Golden Gate & Waterfront
> **Sights menu:** see [`sf_sights.md`](sf_sights.md) for the full candidate list.
*Car day after MS arrives and collects the rental. The order and scope depend on the flight arrival time.*
- **Morning** Drive to **Marin Headlands / Battery Spencer** — the classic Golden Gate Bridge panorama; go early before fog and crowds
- **Late morning** Cross back over the bridge → **Golden Gate Bridge Welcome Center** & Fort Point underneath
- **Midday** **Palace of Fine Arts** → **Crissy Field** (bridge + skyline)
- **Afternoon** Drive **Lombard Street** (the crooked block) → park near **Fisherman's Wharf**
- **Late afternoon** **Pier 39** sea lions → **Ghirardelli Square**; dinner on the waterfront
### Sep 21 — San Francisco: Downtown & Classic SF
*BART day — park the rental in Daly City, ride in to skip downtown parking.*
- **Morning** BART Daly City → **Embarcadero**; **Ferry Building** marketplace for breakfast
- *Optional:* **Alcatraz** — early ferry from Pier 33 (F-line streetcar from the Embarcadero); book ahead
- **Late morning** Ride a **cable car** (California St line) over Nob Hill → **Union Square**
- **Midday** **Chinatown** (Dragon Gate) → **North Beach** (Little Italy) → **Coit Tower** views
- **Afternoon** **Alamo Square** Painted Ladies; optional **Golden Gate Park** (de Young / Japanese Tea Garden)
- **Evening** BART back from Powell St → Daly City
### Sep 22 — SF → Yosemite Valley
> **Sights menu:** see [`parks_sights.md`](parks_sights.md) for the full candidate list + seasonal notes (firefall, water levels, etc.).
- **7 AM** Depart SF
- **Morning** Tunnel View (Hwy 120 entrance) → Bridalveil Fall (5-min walk) → Valley View (Merced River framing)
- **Late afternoon** Cook's Meadow Loop — 1 mile, flat, Half Dome framing, good golden hour
- **Evening** Wawona check-in (flexible)
### Sep 23 — Yosemite: Glacier Point & Mariposa Grove
- **Morning** Glacier Point — best light on Half Dome early
- **Midday** Mirror Lake — 2-mile paved loop via free shuttle (low water in Sep but great views)
- **Late afternoon** Mariposa Grove — relaxed pace
### Sep 24 — Yosemite → Sequoia
- **By 10 AM** Check out Wawona
- **Morning** Drive Hwy 41 south (~3 hrs)
- **Afternoon** Giant Forest Museum (orientation) → General Sherman Tree (shuttle) → Congress Trail (2-mile paved loop, better than just the Sherman stop)
- **Late afternoon** Moro Rock
- **From 4 PM** Gilmore Cabin check-in
### Sep 25 — Kings Canyon
- **Morning** Grant Grove & General Grant Tree — quieter than Sequoia
- **Midday** Kings Canyon Scenic Byway descent
- **Afternoon** Zumwalt Meadow → Road's End
- **Return drive** Canyon walls spectacular in afternoon light
