San Francisco
I have worked for Californian based companies twice, and visited San Francisco a number of times. Sun Microsystems moved its training conference from San Francisco to Las Vegas and so my time in San Francisco became limited to the airport. I can’t remember when and why I stuck this page up, nor why Fodors was…

Alicante
I looked at traveling through Alicante on the way to Valencia. There was very little flight flexibility, and the trains from Valencia started late on the Sunday, although an overnight stop might have been fun.
