The Golden Gate ferry system has added more ferrys between Larkspur and SF over Labor Day weekend on account of the Bay Bridge closure:

So we'll have more afternoon ferry crossings to choose from, one every hour on the half-hour between 12:30 and 5:30. I think we should aim for the 4:30 one, just in case. That gets us to the SF Ferry Building at Embarcadero at around 5:30, and then we'll still need to get back to the Sports Basement (assuming we start from the Sports Basement, which seems like a good a place as any with the plentitude of parking). Hmm, maybe we should shoot for the 3:30 ferry instead?

Oh, and the ferry notice mentions the Sausalito Art Festival that weekend too. Yikes, I had forgotten all about that. Well, we'll just need to give ourselves extra time to wend our way thru Sausalito, I suppose. ( MP, any idea on how this would impact us? )

I'm thinking we should try to reach Larkspur by 2:30, that would give us almost a couple of hours to hang out and party before getting on line for the 4:30 ferry (or, if we decide on the 3:30 ferry, then reach Larkspur by 1:30). Does that sound reasonable?

I'm not sure how long we'd need to ride from the Presidio Sports Basement over the GG Bridge to the Larkspur ferry - I've done it a grand total of once, and I don't recollect how long it took, tho I could probably make an estimate. MP or anyone else, do you have any idea how long it would take at a social pace ?

Ed. to add: It looks like the total mileage starting from near the GG bridge thru Sausalito & Tiburon & around Paradise to Larkspur is only about 25 miles. So if we started around 10 am from the Sports Basement and did some major lollygagging & sightseeing, that would put us in Larkspur around 1, I would think.

Anyhow, just tossing this all up for discussion. What do you all think? Especially Dr. Badger, since this is your party, after all.
That all sounds wonderful... I love when people do all the planning for me

Meeting at 10 sounds good, I would just have to leave PA by around 9, which gets me my beauty sleep
