Travel Diary

I decided to try the complementary breakfast, but it was very disappointing and mainly just coffee and tea and a few light items like Nutri-Grain bars and oatmeal packages. Certainly no match for the Larkspur. After that, I think I've got a little more rest. It would be a long walk day. I got prepared and headed on the Iron Horse Trail going north. I had my small backpack and drone along, so I could take some drone footage since the day would be pretty nice. I decided to make it walking and not try to go out jogging. So at least I could dress for the right kind of experience.

I got some drone footage of the new bridge over Dublin Blvd. Perfect weather for such shots. As always, many Telsa’s were seen.

The day ended up being an extremely long walk. I headed about 12 miles north on the trail, stopped at the trendy Danville market, Lugardi’s, where the food is greatly overpriced and then headed south again. It had been about seven hours and the light was getting dark, so I tried to pick up the pace and was actually doing some jogging for a while. But then it was quite dark. No matter I was back in Dublin and went to Safeway to buy some groceries. I picked up some wine and a single beer and some TV dinners. Oh, and an apple too, which really hit the spot.

Then it was back to the hotel. I had walked 24 miles for the day. I took a hot bath and just soaked for quite some time.
