I'm flying to Sacremento tomorrow evening.
I'm staying in a hotel near Sutter Memorial Hospital.
I'll be at the Expo Center Friday and Saturday (essentially there bankers hours both days.)
I'll be carrying a fair number of books.
Will I need to rent a car?

IE - does this sound within the realm of Sacremento public transportation,
and-or, are taxi's expensive/hard to come by there.

Oh - my flight out is at like 6 am, so that might be tricky.

TIA

I would say yes - rent the car, but I haven't used public transport in Sac much.

You can call a taxi and there's one for you relatively quickly, but it's a minimum $10 fee (unless it's changed in the last year)

Bus schedules - Cal-Expo should have a bus stop, but you'd likely have at least one transfer to get where you're going - that may take too long.

If you have a free night - maybe you can cage in with Grio to 'Geist night in SF.

I would love to go to the geist, but I'm pretty tied up friday and saturday (read "no staying out late, or even staying out"), and I fly out so early on sunday that I'm not going to be too available for partying. Although, there will be some steam that I'll want to blow off.
