We will leave from LS G12 for our field trip at 12:15pm. We will use public transportation to travel to the Exploratorium museum in downtown San Francisco. We will likely break into two groups (with one coordinator per group). The directions are:

  1. Walk to the Muni bus stop at the Turk and Chabot Terrace corner (across the street from the Lone Mountain stairs).

  2. Take the 31 Balboa bus inbound to downtown. Stay on this bus for 28 stops (approximately 35 minutes).

  3. Get off at the Spear and Market stop. This stop is next to the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, and near the Hyatt Regency and Bank of America buildings.

  4. From there, walk along Market Street towards the Embarcadero (towards the bay) and iconic Ferry Building and wait for the other groups to arrive.

  5. Once everyone is together again, we will walk approximately 15 minutes along the Embarcadero (along the bay) to the Exploratorium building.
