SF Giants Parade tomorrow - oh crap!

I arrive at SFO at 10:30 AM tomorrow & have to get to the Moscone. Or to my hotel on Powell - just south of Geary. In the middle of the parade. Obviously Bart will be zoo'd. Do you think a taxi can make it to the Moscone?

Any alternative transport ideas?

Ian

Ian--
Parade is scheduled to start near the Financial District around 11am and then make its way along Montgomery to Market and up market to Civic Center Plaza. If you're heading to Moscone, cab should be able to stay well south of that and get you there. Hotel will be more problematic if you're going direct from SFO.

How 'bout them Giants!!

Thanks, Steve. I'll cab as close as I can get & hoof it if I have to. I'll go right to the Moscone & drop my bags later.

Vash: I know. That's why I posted. We are setting up our booth for the AES show this weekend.

discussed it with my office..during lunch.

your best shot is on BART. you have light luggage? BART is stepping up services, and you should be fine. it will be crowded, but it will move.

Just carry-on & a laptop. Thanks for the consensus, Vash. I guess if I hustle I might beat the parade to Powell & I can hoof it to the Moscone.

Sounds like a good day to head off to Stockton.

As if I thought I'd ever utter THOSE words...
