Appreciate all the replies and have shared with my kidlet. Forgot to mention upthread, that they are staying the first night at one of the hotels on Union Square, and day 2 involves dealing with some passport stuff translates probably into 1 museum. Turns out that they have finagled the night on their own to a friends aunt’s spare bedroom in Oakland (probably the Oakland Hills but I’m not sure). Not only that, but figured out that Jo’s Modern Thai is in Oakland, and has a Michelin star.

Day 3 is a leisurely drive to Monterey to meet a couple buddies coming that day from LA. So, is there something recommended either between the Berkely/Oakland area and Monterey? And [cioppino at Phil’s Fish Market](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cioppino-recommendations-around-monterey-please/1004222) is about 99% given.
