It may be more yuppie than hippie now, but Berkeley is still proud of its progressive roots. Take a trip to Telegraph Avenue: Once the focal point of flower power, it's now a row of funky restaurants, boutiques and local crafts.
Then head to North Berkeley's world-famous Gourmet Ghetto for the farmers market, or if you don't feel like cooking, grab a table at one of its fine restaurants. Wrap it up with a cocktail at the tony Claremont Hotel Club and Spa. Located high atop the city, its Paragon bar has one of the best views of the East Bay.
