Does any one know any good cheap places to go near San Fransisco for Christmas? East bay side? -

My boyfreind s 16 year old daughter is coming down from out of town. Just wanting to show her a good time without him being homeless. Know any good places to go for Christmas break?

Not sure if you are asking about a destination for an outing or a place to stay.Regarding activities, there are several wonderful places where someone can walk for blocks and see a rich mix of specialty shops, restaurants, coffee shops/bakeries, theaters, bookstores and so on. One of these is College Avenue, which runs between Broadway (originating in Oakland at California College of Art) and ends about 2 miles north of that on Bancroft Street (University of California, Berkeley campus). One of the principal nodes along this stretch of mixed use is Rockridge. There is a BART station there. Some people take the BART train from San Francisco to the Rockridge station and hoof it in that area along College Avenue for a few hours. You might find something very interesting there. Afternoon to early evening is the best time.

Union Sq- walking around or ice skating there.. Here s a site.. Hope it helps..http://www.bayareaonthecheap.com/

check with the hotels near your home for a local s discount . this is prime travel season rates go up exponentially.

What is the main transportation used in America? -

What is the main transportation used in America? I also need to know if there are any deals for this transportation

the automobile

Except for a few major cities, the main transportation is automotive. You can find bus routes, railway, airline, subway, taxi ect that will bring you anywhere as there is no shortage of options most anywhere you go.

The main transportation is the automobile. With the exception of New York, Washington, Chicago, and Boston, only poor people and foreigners on vacation use public transit.

That would really depend on the area where you would living. There are subway and city buses. And then there are shuttle buses. Rapid transit trains. All of them are of reasonable cost for monthly pass.

Is northridge in the same mayor district as Los Angeles? -

I don t see Northridge on the list of cities so is it included as part of Los Angeles for mayor and council member?

This is a common problem in Los Angeles, as many parts of the city are defined separately for neighborhoods and postal codes. So, while places like Northridge, Hollywood, Studio City, Toluca Lake, West Los Angeles are all part of Los Angeles, places like Burbank, Glendale, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood are their own independent cities with their own mayors.The best way to distinguish between Los Angeles city and other incorporated cities in Los Angeles County is to get a Thomas Bros. or similar map. All of Los Angeles City is white on the map, while the other cities are different colors. Unincorporated county area is yellow. To this day, when I think of a place in the LA area, I think of its color on that map and I can tell if it s part of LA city or not.

Yes, Northridge is part of the Los Angeles city limits. That s just like a question someone asked me a long time ago about who is the mayor of Hollywood? (the honorary mayor is Johnny Grant) when I was a directory assistance operator. Although you are right, Northridge does have a council member for that district on the Los Angeles City Council; but only one mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa.

just out of curiosity, are you asking this question for professor michaud s poli sci class?

How long does it take to get a package from Cali to NC? -

My boyfriend mailed me a package exactly 7 days ago,and I still haven t received it. Maybe I m just anxious to get it and it needs more time but i m wondering how long it will take before it arrives? HELP PLEASE D: I WANT MY SH*T! lololol

it depends on how he sent it. regular mail usually takes 3 days from coast to coast but ups or usps can take anywhere from 3-10 days. next time let him know to send the package priority mail, usps. that way it only takes 2-3 days at most and it s not much extra. make sure he gets a tracking number for 80cents also.

How much money will I need for 2 weeks in New York? -

Staying in Queens but will spend a bit of time in Manhattan and New Jersey too!

Bring a lot of money, in between 1000-2000. Everything is expensive in the city, so just be prepared to be spending a lot.

The amount of money you will need depends largely on what you plan to do during your stay in NYC. Do you plan on doing a lot of shopping, dining out at expensive restaurants, etc.? If so, then you should budget accordingly. However, if you plan on spending an average amount, then I would say around $35 to no more than $50 a day (which is more than enough).

Probably around $1000 without the hotel. Good luck!

i think aroung 1200 to 1500 $

WHERE IN ATLANTA IS A SAFE AFFORDABLE PLACE TO LIVE? -

I m thinking about moving to ATLANTA, i have a 2 year old. We are looking for a nice area to move too, where it s safe, definitely affordable,with nice people, and with entertainment areas for both kids and the parents. lounges, parks, etc. could someone please tell me how it is the live in Atlanta? we are hispanic, (Colombia) are there a lot of hispanics there? IF you can please provide zip codes so that i can start looking for a place to move too, i would really appreciated. whats the weather like? we currently live in Miami. thank you so much!

At the gym last week I was talking to a woman from Columbia, who said there s a big population of people from your country, living in Woodstock. (I think the zip is 30092.) The day care centers and schools are good in Woodstock, there are a variety of apartments, as well as condos and single family subdivisions.The weather is much cooler in the Atlanta area than what you re used to in Miami. This morning, for instance, my deck was covered in ice and I had to scrape the windshield of my car. (Right now, it s probably in the low 50s.)Good luck.

My dad lives in cobb county, atlanta. I am sorry I forgot the zip code. But it is a very safe county about 35 minutes from downtown atlanta, about 30 minutes from a couple of great malls. The weather there is not as hot as it is in miami, but it can sometimes get hot, but mostly its nice weather.

If you re looking for a safe place to live NEAR Atlanta with a lot of hispanics, your choices are limitless. Atlanta has a huge, and growing, hispanic population. Try West Cobb County and parts of Gwinnett County if you like the suburbs. If you want to live intown, there are lots of Spanish speaking people in Doraville and off Cheshire Bridge Road, just south of Brookhaven. I haven t got the zips...sorry. PS: the weather s much colder than Miami in the winter.

I would suggest staying on the north side of the city for the most part. Look at Cobb County (Marietta, Kennesaw, Vinings), maybe Cherokee County (Woodstock), Gwinnett County (Duluth, Lawrenceville) or down in Coweta County (Palmetto, Peachtree City). Stay away from East Point, College Park and Hapeville which are south of the city near the airport.

peachtree ga. is one of the most affordable and easy acess to atl.

Searching for Music Practice Rooms in NYC? -
