Sue's Tips
Wear comfortable shoes!
Be prepared for warm days and "Kool Nites"! Don't forget sunscreen.
The pancake breakfast is a real bargain at $4, and is served from 7-10AM. There are lots of food and beverage vendors, so you will not go hungry.
Don't miss the Sundial Bridge. It is connected to the convention center, and is worth the short walk across. If you're warm, you can take the path down to the water. If you like this sort of thing it is truly a work of art and it's story is very interesting.
You may even
see an eagle and for sure a goose or two.
Sundial Bridge can be found on
google.
Directions:
Interstate 5 north towards Redding.
Exit 678 stay to the left taking Highway 44 to Eureka.
Continue west on Shasta St.
Just past California St., turn left (1/2 block) and turn into RABA Passenger Parking.
Parking is on both sides of the station area, so if one area is busy there is more further down.
RABA is free and runs about every 10 minutes. It will let you off right in front of the car show. It picks you up and takes you back running round trips all day long.
Ok I now know I have to bring tissue on Saturday~
