Here was the plan: We would take BART from Berkeley to the Embarcadero in San Francisco. Then we would go to the Ferry Building and board the ferry leaving at 10:00 am for Sausalito. After which we will walk from Sausalito to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco. After arriving at Fisherman's Wharf we will board a streetcar going to the Embarcadero and then get on BART for the ride back to Berkeley. It proved to be a successful plan.
