Happy Presidents Day and Valentine's Day weekend! See Penguin Valentines at Cal Academy, where felt hearts line the nests of the resident African Penguins in a pair-bonding annual tradition. Chinatown is hosting its most popular event of the year: the Chinese Lunar New Year Parade and Festival celebrates the Year of the Snake. Great Scott!
