Almost there
....4:15pm, finally got off the freeway, the weather was foggy and chilly, definitely not my favorite type to drive in. The surface street was really narrow, let alone that both sides of the street was lined bumper to bumper with parking vehicles. People there drive even more aggressively than SoCal folks, I had three cars cut me off without signaling, where are the patrol cars? they would really make a fortune issuing a bunch of tickets there. oh, and the street signs, why can't they make them a little bit bigger, they are not those large overhead street name signs that hang from traffic signal type that I am familiar with, they were so tiny and often hidden behind those old trees, my Mom is far-sighted, and that even didn't help. thanks to that, I overshot the street I was supposed to turn onto, wished I'd brought a pair of binoculars with me, that would have been really handy. and don't get me started on those one-way streets, it was so frustrating to drive there, not to mention all those jay-walking pedestrians, MAN, now I know why my advisors warned us not to bring cars to Berkeley! okay, after two left turns, one U-turn, and two right turns, I finally got onto College street. I took it as God's mercy toward me, as I found a parking spot right in front of my check-in place, and, strangely, on the way here, I never felt tired at all until the moment I turned off the ignition, Man, was I beat!
