Parking perspective

Just to make you all feel better about not living in the most expensive part of the country...

Take a drive into Fisherman's Wharf for the classic Frisco tourist thing. (FYI, the only people who say Frisco don't live there. Kind of the same way natives don't say Philly.) Parking for this merry little jaunt can -- easily -- top $30. I'm not kidding.

So you decide to take the BART train -- a lovely clean and marvelous thing, as nice as DC public transit. (The only really good thing about that town, IMO, although the restaurants aren't terrible, either.) This will cost you, from the end of the line in Fremont, $16 round trip.

So... I live about 45 minutes away from one of the finest cities in the world, and between the expense and the Have A Kid nature of our existence, only go there to entertain out-of-town guests. Sigh.

(The preceeding message has been brought to you by People Who Moved To Northern California And Would Like To Shut The Door Behind Them.)
