Rare rainy night on University Ave
Stanford Main Quad
El Palo Alto (to the right of the trestle bridge)
Place Your Order
This trail commemorates the route followed by a Spanish commander, Juan Bautista de Anza, in 1775-76 when he led a contingent of 30 soldiers and their families to found a presidio and mission near the San Francisco Bay.
To this day several people still hike this trail.

Palo Alto has an amazing number of good restaurants. I like Asian cuisines myself. Try
Jing Jing for Szechuan
Rangoon for Burmese
Janta for Indian
...
Now, what was the name of that Thai place?
Outside Asia:
Benbo's for Mediterranean
The Dish Area is a 1500 acre area west of the main campus in the lower foothills. It is private park that is part of Stanford University. A radio telescope commonly known as "The Dish" is the most prominent landmark in the foothills. Built in 1961, the 150-foot-diameter Dish, which SRI International operates and maintains (US government owns it), is still used to scan distant planets and galaxies. The radar dish gives it its name but it is mostly undeveloped open space which Stanford is preserving. It is a beautiful place for a hike or jog, although there are some hills. On clear days, there are some spectacular views from the top of the hills. The plants and animals are also interesting to watch. Just be sure to read the instructions about what to do if you encounter a mountain lion.
Palo Alto is close to where I currently live (Cupertino), and I have a friend who lives here and works at Stanford. Stanford is one of the world's well-known universities, and rates its own zip code (94305) and its own particle accelerator (the Stanford Linear Accelerator, known as SLAC). I visit pretty often, mostly to visit the campus and my friend here, and will fill in the details of life in Palo Alto as I get to know the place better!
First time I visited Palo Alto was in the lat 1970's because my sister went to college here. Back then houses in Palo Alto were selling for around $80K to $90K.
Later I visited Palo Alto alot starting in the 1990's because I worked for a computer companty that was had it's headquarters in Palo Alto. By this time, houses were selling for $700k to $1mil or more.

A: "Never done it myself, but you can take the BART _south_ (most people go north from SFO) to the Millbrae station and transfer to CalTrain and onto Palo Alto. From there,..."
