A San Francisco Sunday Our Stomach Can Handle

Obviously, we love doing weekend jet-set trips across country, but there’s one aspect that’s consistently disappointing: Sundays—they’re so perfect when you’re at home, but so frustrating when you’re on the road.

No matter how good Friday and Saturday are, the Sunday portion of our trip inevitably goes something like this: we wake up tired and hungover from too much Fri/Sat fun, but feel guilty about wasting a day of such a short vacation, so we end up leaving the hotel hottub, begrudgingly fitting in some last tourist sites when we’d much rather be back at the bar eating a second brunch, mentally preparing ourselves for what is surely going to be a too-crowded flight home.

So we’re always on the lookouts for simple Sundays—vacation activities that make us feel active but require the very least amount of effort.

On a recent weekend whirlwind to San Francisco, we were excited to find out about Hornblower Cruises’ Sunday Champagne Brunch—a simple but genius idea if you ask us. The 11:30 am to 1:30 p.m. boat ride takes you past all the requisite gorgeous SF Bay spots, so you can see the Golden Gate, Alcatraz, all that, without standing on a single line.

In fact, you can do it all while feasting on a massive drunk brunch, with French Toast Valencia, scrambled eggs, and bacon as far as the eye can see, not to mention as much Champagne as your stomach can handle. Now that’s a Sunday tourist trap we can get on board with.

Don’t forget to take pictures. Or do; it’s Sunday.
