Hello from San Jose, Dec 4

By Jian Shuo Wang on 2006-12-04 02:20 · San Jose

Hello from San Jose. I arrived at 10:00 sharp at hotel. This time, I drove without a map. I am happy that I finally setup some sense of location, and for most places, like University Ave, Downtown Mountview, San Jose, Stanford, I don’t need a map now.

Getting to bed to have sleep now to kill the jet lag - my way.

Any bets on how long it will take him to get lost *this* time, folks? ;-)

Just teasing you, Jian Shuo. I'm sure it feels good to be able to find your way around our crazy freeway system.

Here's to a good day's sleep!

The thing about getting lost in San Jose is that every other road starts with San or Santa :)

:-) This time, I didn't bring a map, and drove alone the 101. I don't remember the exit, but when I saw Brokaw Rd, I know it is the time to exit. Double Tree is just on the right hand of the Airport Pkwy...

It is easy.

For 2154 Hamilton Ave, it is also easy. At least I formed a sense of how US 101, I-280, CA-17, CA-85 connecting with each other. With these four highway in mind, driving is not that bad.

I live in San Jose (Almaden, near HWY 87/85). I know it like the back of my own hand.

I am moving to Wuxi in January (got to your page from a Google search, trying to research the best SIM to buy for calls to/from Wuxi/US).

You have my email address (posted here, hidden to others). If you need anything - anything at all - send me an email, and I'll give you my phone number. I know you said not to ask you to do either, but this time it's for you, if you need it. If you need help with anything, do not hesitate to contact me.
