Right north of Oakland is... by melemeday
Right north of Oakland is Berkeley, home of the prestigious university, UC Berkeley. Nice afternoon strolls along downtown in Shattuck (catch some good indie films), College Avenue for some small shops, cafe's, and ESPECIALLY need to spend an afternoon on Telegraph for a more ecletic/alternative view of the East Bay - lots to take note of, great sidewalk vendors, great used music/cd stores and cafes.
