North to South:
- Golden Gate Bridge and drive through Sausalito and back
- http://www.museemecaniquesf.com/ (Fisherman's Wharf)
- http://www.calacademy.org/ (Golden Gate Park)
- http://www.dnalounge.com/ (jwz's nightclub, between SoMa and Mission)
- http://techshop.ws/Events.html (Menlo Park)

Ha, shame I am coming back at the end of the month or I could show you 
around Google. You can drive around the outside of the buildings but 
it's definitely more interesting inside. :p

Visit noisebridge, they are a friendly bunch. What is "the key"? Just 
ring the bell and explain you're from LHS. A lot of them have GPG keys 
so bring yours along to get it signed, if you're into that stuff. They 
have introductory meetings on Tuesday evenings IIRC (but check the 
website to make sure).
