Berkeley Weekend for Families

See the full trip plan at www.99places.com.

Spring Break is right around the corner and thanks to our economy, this may not be your year to take an exotic trip. But luckily for us Northern Californians, there are lots of great trips close by which offer both fun and learning for the whole family.
My favorite “local” trips for family spring break include: Berkeley, San Francisco, Monterey, and San Diego. Today I’ll start with Berkeley with the rest to follow.
Berkeley holds special meaning for me (I studied there, my husband proposed there) so I always look for opportunities to share this wonderful destination with others. While Berkeley is a bit lacking in the accommodations department (I recommend the Claremont below) it makes up for it with a wealth of indoor and outdoor family activities and high quality, kid-friendly restaurants.
