Shoreline park, Mountain View
Its a very very big park surrounded by mountains on all sides. I guess that's how the place got its name -- "Mountain View".
Lush green fields all around, a big blue lake, trees , golf course, lots of chucks, kids with their grandparents, couples, grandparents cycling with their grandsons, teaching them how to drive bike..(cycle is popular by the name BIKE here) Cool *sweet* breezes constantly kept shivering us, telling us not to just sit on the bench but move around and enjoy the place. It was nice company... Shukriya Breeze bhai log... he he ... Even at 3 o clock in the afternoon we were feeling cold...good news was that surya devta saare bay area pe meherbaan the helping us in beating the cool breezes.
Its spring time presently in bay area... you will see greenery everywhere... All trees/flowers to their best... Pregnant women moving with their husbands,People Jogging, Some people generally walking around the park , enjoying the scenic view with their dear ones, some boating, kayaking. We choose to just roam around and enjoy the weather.
There are kite flying areas inside the park where you will find kids and even elders flying big kites. But surprisingly people do not use very long threads like we use in India and no fighting like us... pench ladana bhi nahi :-( They have a fixed length string and some kites even have 4 strings... Since its windy within seconds you will see your kite in air...which is what many kids enjoy... felt completely childish here... gosh, if i could get one for me or even ask someone if i can try flying it for some time.
I like the types of cycle here. 2 seater cycles are really awesome... You can teach your child how to pedal a cycle and keep the control of cycle in your hands...No worries of falling and slipping... This is really really good... we should have some of them made in India :-)...There's one more thing i found new was that you can attach bikes to your car...There are these special stands attached to the car that can be used to fix your cycles... Its a very nice feature, can be very useful if one is going to a remote place or for trekking... Imagine after a long tiresome trek one way you find you have cycle with you that you can take back... it will be so relaxing... Ab hum aaram se to wapas jaa hi sakte hai :D
Its a very peaceful park and a good weekend hanging place for the family. Nature at its best... Ye khula aasman...

Caught up on your blog - it's interesting to read all the details. Am re-discovering CA through your eyes!
Californians definitely are more inclined to an outdoors life and you can see why!!
"Its spring time presently in bay area... you will see greenery everywhere... All trees/flowers to their best... Pregnant women moving with their husbands..."
