Went biking in Palo Alto today!

It's been almost more than 5 years since I last rode a bike, because well I have a car back home so there's really no point in having a bike, when I can go from point A to point B. But in Palo Alto, it's a different story. I don't have a car, and from my experience, the bus is ok during the weekdays, but come the weekend, the buses are infrequent. So, I decided today to ride my bike and I biked to Stanford. Along the way, I took some photos. Biking is actually really nice, you can go wherever you want to go, and it's nice for exercise as well. I really enjoyed biking today. Before I went to Stanford, there was a flea market at Palo Alto high school where I bought a pair of rollerblades for $10!

After finishing up at Stanford, I went to the Menlo Park nativity carnival which is an annual tradition in Menlo Park. The carnival reminded me a little like a small Canada's Wonderland or CNE. Here are some pictures that I took.









They even had a ferris wheel!



Entertainment:



Mmm, funnel cake!



I made a podcast at the Menlo Park nativity carnival, you can listen to it here.

Now, I realize that having a bike really helps to go from point A or point B. Plus, it's nice weather as well!
