British-inspired driving…read more SAFETY (3 stars): Brightly lit garage, but super dark outside on the street-side entrance as well as the alley-way entrance. SPACES (3 stars): Average size, but a little on the small side. NAVIGATION (2 stars): Someone please tell me, WHY must we drive on The Left? It's bizarre and rather dangerous, as I've seen drunk people not quite sure how to handle those turns. Even sober it can be daunting. It's not a big deal as long as no one is going in the opposite direction. But as soon as you add someone else to the mix, everyone tenses up. You can see the fear in their eyes. PRICE / HOURS (4 stars): Free, but a 2-hour time limit and NO parking from 2:00-6:00 am, unless you are a permit holder. VERDICT: 1. I really don't like playing with death in this British-inspired parking lot. I've adapted to driving on The Left for this parking lot, but what about newbies who unknowingly park here? Scary. 2. Who designed this place?! Perhaps Sunnyvale's parking lot designers somehow got their paws on this project. That would explain a lot.

It was strangely quiet in the California Ave area, and I cruised around trying to get closer to where I wanted to be.

I'm assuming it's usually not super bad, but we went on Valentine's Day, so that made things a tad more difficult. There's a wide variety of eateries (just know that some of them close for a lunch break) and boba places and sweets places which is nice, as well as a local mom and pop owned market, a book store, gift shops, and the pop up for local independent artists. It's pretty lively on weekends with lots of people walking around, students busking, families hanging out, there's a ping pong table, and it's nice that they close down part of the middle roadway so pedestrians can walk easier and much more willy nilly, as well as opportunities for al fresca dining. Food options that I saw were Japanese, Thai, Korean, Chinese (from many regions), Indian, Mexican, American, Mediterranean, and much more. They got a sizeable Ume Tea here as well and if it weren't so busy, I'd stop by either of the 2 patisseries they had. Also, random, but I liked how they used that one storefront just to highlight what looks like a child's research project on penguins. Super cute!

One of the best things about the train is seeing all of the little towns along the tracks. One of my favorites is Mountain View. The train station is on the edge of a busy downtown street lined with shops, restaurants and interesting people. Step off the train and you're right in the heart of the action. There's plenty of parking and getting to either side of the tracks to access the north or southbound trains is super easy. The next time you're on the train, consider making a pit stop in Mountain View.

The street is blocked off from traffic, so all the restaurants, bars, breweries and assorted other stores are easily accessible.

Definitely worth checking out!!

If the Stanford shopping centers vision was lifeless store fronts and no one actually shopping then…read morethey achieved it. Owners please take a look around, no one is shopping. An entire year here and I literally see no one buying anything in any of the stores, regardless of the season. It feels very pretentious. Each store, each window has the same exact thing - no color, no life. Each store equally more expensive than the next. I have come to learn that the building owners sought a "vision" and pushed out previous stores here to have what it does now. Each store front pushes mute colors, I walk into a store $600 for the most boring top I have ever seen, and this carries on through each and every store here. Not to mention, a lot of the stores push concerning stereotypes and visions of women's bodies. There's a select few stores I love here, Outerknown (you are awesome) and Aesop, are what keeps me coming back - other than that, it's a sad shopping experience and I actually really enjoy shopping at a lot of malls. Sad, uninspiring. This mall is now pushing sad and concerning shopping and fashion culture. This is unrealistic, false expectation setting. It is deplorable.

Yes, I had to drive around a couple of times to find a spot, that I was confident that I could get into. I even, moved my car to an easier spot, after I'd parked and left my car. But, the upside? I came back to my car and it was still there. No windows were broken. No one tried to open my trunk. I could take the elevator upstairs and exit the building. The same one I used to re-enter the building, once I'd found it. The only issue? Well, I had to back out of my space (luckily, I'd parked next to a handicapped parking access aisle, so I could get into my car just fine. But, I had to pull out of the space for my husband to get in. A non-issue and another reason I was grateful. So, I'd look for a spot here just because and that's fine with me.
