FREE WALK. This time our walk will be free to all because of the holiday season. In December we get a special treat. This walk's last museum, the Fairmont Hotel, has set up its annual 25-foot-high Gingerbread House plus more things for all to enjoy.

This is a relatively easy walk, especially now in the rainy season as this walk has rain protection inside of museums, and they all have restrooms. Also, I will give weather reports before the walk.

We will gather at the far East end of the top of the Salesforce Terminal, next to the Beale Street Elevator, at 10:45 AM. The top has a beautiful park.

Attendance Max = 70. One guest is allowed per member if put on the RSVP.

To find me: I am 6 feet tall, wear a big blue & black hat and have a clipboard. One should bring water and a sack lunch.

THE START OF THE WALK: Then at 11:00 AM we will walk to the down escalator down to the sidewalk and then walk on Mission Street to the Rincon Center's History Lobby to look inside at the many paintings and other history displays. Late attendees may find us walking towards the Rincon Center or inside it.

Usually when I start a walk at the Salesforce Terminal Park, we have time for me to explain things in and around there, but on this walk we don't have time for that.

Bring a water bottle and a sack lunch. We will eat lunch about 12:45 PM.

At about 4:30 PM we will officially end at Sansom St. & Market St. where there is a BART Station. However, I will be walking back to the Salesforce Terminal and everyone there is invited to walk with me.

I advise taking public transportation & not driving to SF because both driving and parking there is usually horrible.
