Join Grand Marshal/Oakland's own Barbara Lee for San Francisco's take on this fine tradition of teeny-tiny spangly outfits paired with dancing! dancing! dancing! at the Carnaval SF parade, featuring over 80 groups sambaing up 24th and down Mission [map].
The Carnaval SF Festival, held all day Saturday and Sunday, offers food, music, arts and more along the five blocks of Harrison between 16th and 23rd Streets.

Meet at 8 a.m. at the large spherical cage near Nature Center at Perkins & Bellevue Sts. Designed for novice and intermediate birders, this trip provides an introduction to birding as well as opportunity to study birds more difficult to identify. First half focuses on water birds. Second half is in parklands bordering lake where we expect to see smaller birds. Vagrant species occur frequently at Lake Merritt. Route is handicapped accessible.
