Even though it’s not yet Thanksgiving, it’s hard to ignore the twinkling lights, shimmering garland and red Starbucks cups popping up all over town. So instead of trying to ignore the décor to prep for the day dedicated to being thankful for all we are given before we eat ourselves into a coma, why not take advantage of some of the special holiday offers early! For instance, PIER 39’s Holiday Local Advantage program is in full swing! Local can sign up to receive 50% off their favorite restaurants, shops and attractions at PIER 39 – including our Bay Cruise or Escape from the Rock Cruise http://www.pier39.com/LocalAdvantage/
Or “like” Blue & Gold Fleet on Facebook and enter for a chance to win a 1-night hotel stay at the Holiday Inn Express on Fisherman’s Wharf (including breakfast and FREE parking), and two (2) Premier Passes to enjoy the best attractions at PIER 39. https://www.facebook.com/blueandgoldfleet?sk=app_163032157099207
Now, apart from all the wonderful deals there are so many magical events coming up in the City! It’s impossible for me to go into all of them in depth, but here is a list of all the San Francisco “Tree” Lightings to really get you in the Holiday spirit!
Nov. 17 (TONIGHT!) – Snowflakes on Market
(Annual lighting of the snowflakes on top of the Market Street lamps. It will almost seem like it’s snowing?)
