no kiting, going to Alta

We had planned on going kiteboarding at Alameda today, but the wind was completely dead. It’s obvious, but interesting to see how your perception of everyday things can change. Before kiteboarding, I never really noticed how strong the wind was blowing, except when it got in the way. For better or worse, I find myself looking at the trees a lot these days: are the leaves moving? Are the BRANCHES moving? Which way are they moving?! Anyway, we ended up driving to my parents house in Berkeley instead, had an expertly prepared Udon by chef Kenji, and then drove up to the cabin. We waited until 7:30 pm to leave, so we beat all the traffic and were there by 9:30 or 10.
