If that's not a relaxing way to end the week, then I don't know what is? :) The ride started off with some award-winning and very delicious macarons Melinda made. The ONE time I decided to take Village Dr. over to Alameda de las Pulgas, Valerga Dr. was completely blocked at both ends by police. In total, there were a dozen police and Sherriff's cars for a reported gunshot. Finally got to try my idea of getting dim sum from Hongry Kong. I was able to text them my order and they had it ready for pickup. We were early actually so that worked out otherwise the food might have been cold if we were on time. In the past, I've picked up food for lunch and then ate it at the park when no one was around. It didn't occur to me that the playground would be filled with kids in the evening. And they were screaming at each other across the separate playgrounds with the tables where we were eating directly in between. I actually ordered too much (got to eating before taking shots of everything). Having more people would've helped. I sort of knew it would be a possibility and brought my packable backpack to take the leftovers home. The tree we were sitting underneath was dripping what looked like the insides of blueberries. It was getting on us, our bikes, and the food. It was a surreal dinner but fun as was the ride. Did some road bikeable gravel.
