Finally ran on the Baylands Park trail in Sunnyvale this Sunday, our first
time here. We were a bit skeptic about the $6 car parking fee, as suggested by
the City of Sunnyvale
website.
However, when we arrived, the ticketing window was closed, though the off-
season lasts only until February. We parked close to where we thought the
trail began, but it did takes us a while, a run of about a kilometer, to
figure out the trail and where it extended. We ran in the evening, a couple of
hours before the sunset. I did my first long, slow run of the
season.

As part of my trip to the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum, I took the VTA (Valley Transportation Authority) LRT (Light Rail Transit) from the River Oaks station. The River Oaks center at North First street also houses the VTA administrative office. This place is a 20 minutes walk from home and 10 minutes on a bike. VTA provides for bikers to carry their cycles on buses and trains; I haven’t used either yet.
