But for now, for both day 2 and 3, we'll be leaving from the Tamien Caltrain station at 10:32 AM. Said station is on 1355 Lick Avenue (QUICKLY! To the LICK STATION!) which is luckily 1 turn away from the hotel we're staying at, but it's 3.5 miles down. You can get there however you want from the hotel. I'm gonna be hardcore and walk. HOWEVER, in order to ensure we depart properly, you need to be at the station at 10:15, around 20 minutes early. This is to ensure we can all buy tickets and still catch the train. Try your hardest to make the time.

This is probably a stupid question, but is "day 1" Monday or Tuesday?
There's a great site called the TakeTransit Trip Planner (covering Silicon Valley , San Francisco, East Bay, etc.) where you can enter in the addresses you're coming from and going to, what time you'll be leaving or needing to get there, and it will tell you some buses and trains you can take.

Also, if anyone wants to take a bus from the hotel to Caltrain, it seems to be easier to do that with the main Caltrain station than the Tamien station -- you can walk down to the intersection of Monterey Hwy and Skyway and catch a bus that goes right to the main Caltrain station.
