This Means You.

Hooray for moms visiting! My mom has left sunny San Diego to visit her most awesome child here in the Bay Area, and I am quite happy as I haven’t seen her since this time last year. Luckily shes more interested in doing the “local thing” and visiting her favorite SF spots, including Flax Art Supply, El Cafe Tazo and Amoeba Records. I don’t have to work too hard to make sure she has a good time.

Perhaps you have family visiting this weekend, and just don’t know what to do? Here are some things going on in the Bay Area that might do the trick.

If you have little ones to entertain why not take them over to the 2008 Cupertino Special Festival arts/crafts/music? There will be several fun things going on including a Soccer Tournament, children’s arts, crafts and music, face painting, bouncy castle and a giant slide to name a few. For the adults there will be various information booths dealing with community, health and nutrition. There will also be food and sweet treats. :: funcheap SF

This Saturday is everyones last chance to go on the Wildflower hike at Coyote-Bear Park in Gilroy this year. It’s been sunny and beautiful in the Bay Area the last few days, so I would recommend heading out and enjoying nature at her best. Don’t forget your sun screen and lots of water! :: funcheap SF

Do you like peg legs, eye patches, a hot wench, arrgs, yo ho hos, and a good bottle of rum? Well then why don’t you head out to the Million Pirate March, happening this Sunday during Bay to Breakers? What could be more fun than a million pirates? :: funcheap SF, Million Pirate March

The first flick of the season for Film Night in the Park is The Wizard of Oz, and it is being shown in wonderful Delores Park here in the Mission on Saturday night. Grab a blanket, picnic basket and your tasty beverage of choice and head on out for good times. I’ve been to a few of these, and they’re always awesome. :: funcheap SF

And lastly

BAY TO BREAKERS happens this Sunday. ‘Nuff said.

Have an amazing and invigorating weekend everyone!
