Our favorite place to dine and celebrate the Christmas holidays is the Palace Hotel in San Francisco. Their Christmas lunch is over-the-top amazing! We’ve dined there several times and enjoy the immense variety of food offerings from around the globe. The Christmas decor is fitting for such a grand experience. The lunch is served in the Garden Court which has a massive stained glass or painted dome overhead. There’s usually a large decorated Christmas tree with a string quartet nearby. Just a bit of trivia…Michael Douglas fell through the glass dome into the Garden Court in the movie “The Game!” Their website has several photos if Garden Court and the glass dome.
Since the annual Free Museum Day in Sacramento on February 2 is coming up soon I thought I should pass this along. It’s such a great venue! Sacramento has 25 museums participating this year. Our favorites are the Aerospace Museum of California and Leland Stanford Governor Mansion. We’ve visited most of the museums in Sacramento over the years and enjoyed all. There’s also a cemetary tour that’s also interesting, historic. Of course, after all the touring you must stop at Rick’s Dessert Diner on J Street to end your day! It’s Sacramento’s premiere dessert diner. It has been voted the best dessert every year since 1986.
Here’s a something I had to share from Sister Roberta Carson. Go to your local library with your library card to receive “free” tickets to local places in the Bay Area like zoos, art galleries and more! Find out more here, Contra Costa Library Discover and Go!
I’d like to add another fun family excursion we have taken visitors many times. It is not well known, kind of a San Jose secret! It is the largest Egyptian museum on the west coast. Everyone should visit the Rosecrucian Museum It is ran by monks. Interesting grounds and museum. Great educational experience for kids. Kelley Park is also a great place to visit while you’re there with the kids. Kelley Park has been recently refurbished with a great lawn, park area and small zoo. Of course, the Tech Museum is well liked also. Our fav place to eat is the Poor House Bistro It’s an older building fashioned after old places in New Orleans. Great food! – Jannie
My husband and I enjoy finding local places to visit and explore. I am fond of day trips or even weekend trips, not too far away. A great place to take the kids, although adults like it too, is the USS Hornet in Alameda. The Hornet is a national and state history landmark and was part of the Apollo Program. Visitors can see the space capsule in which the astronauts were retrieved from the water and decompression chamber. Fenton’s Ice Cream Parlor, Oakland, is a fun place for lunch or just ice cream. It’s a retro parlor with a large selection of sundaes and cones. We’ve not been but heard the Pinball Museumis also a fun place to visit. – Jannie
