What a beautiful day for a walk :D

Walked through the Berkeley Farmer's Market today, lots of little stands selling their organic produce.  Picked out a few for checking out later: a stand selling specialty olive oil, another with lots of different mushrooms, bread, some selling really tasty-looking fruit, and some other ones selling lunch.  Next Saturday?

Took the bus..overheard some high school students venting about their cross-country coach.  He never praises them even though they've done well.  Remember those days of track. Can't imagine what it would be like with a practical Nazi as a coach.

Stopped by REI in North Berkeley...gonna finally fix my bike tires now.

Then walked from REI to 99 Ranch (lol why? just cuz).  Walked through University Village. I had heard of it (the 52L used to have that on its destination banner) but have never seen it.  Was surprised that it was really nice; looks like the places in Alameda, with lots of families out and about today.  Walked by that mysterious Albany Hill...just an isolated , mostly untouched rock that's next to the bay, just a bunch of trees though, not even a view at the top so decided not to scale it.

Discovered that 99 Ranch doesn't have the tea I use to make milk tea (Rickshaw) :( :( :( Picked up some other goodies though.

Faced a small dilemma: whether to take the 52L towards El Cerrito BART or to cross the street and take it directly back to Berkeley. Decided to go to BART; used up my tiny $1.40 ticket.

Destinations weren't as important as much as enjoying the sunny sky and fresh air along the way :D
