After breakfast, head down to Union Square and Powell Street to watch the cable car operators turn the cable cars around by pushing them. Hang out and watch for a while and then jump on a cable car and head out to Fisherman's Wharf, where you can catch a ferry to Alcatraz or visit one of the numerous restaurants, street vendors and souvenir stores. For the best ride, be sure to get an outside spot near the front of the car. Just be sure to hang on tight!
