## Notes
|
||
|
||
- UA1333's latest arrival estimate is 53 minutes late. The original 1:00 PM rental pickup and afternoon schedule no longer work as written; notify SIXT now and reassess the route after collecting the car
|
||
- Museum gets only ~75 min here. For a proper 2 hrs, skip Google Visitor Experience and go Apple → museum at 3:00 PM
|
||
- If the museum runs over: skip the SF-side bridge stop, straight to Battery Spencer by 6:30
|
||
- Stanford and Fort Point are out. Concert in Concord does not fit (show 6:30 PM, ~90 min away)
|
||
- Bridge toll is electronic, southbound only, on the way back. SIXT bills it with a fee unless a toll pass is added at pickup
|
||
- Verify Apple / Google / museum hours the morning of
