最近在報紙上看到Orchard Hills in Irvine有開了一條新的trail, 看起來蠻不錯的:

然後做了一些research about trails around Irvine, 發現其實Irvine附近不只是有靠海的地方可以去, 其實還不少平常可以去走or biking的trails, 而且還有一些團體辦的guided tour可以參加喔:

Google一下網路, 發現一些人post的照片, 看起來還不錯

Diamond Jamboree Shopping Center in Irvine (鑽石廣場在爾灣)
出差前一個星期, 跟老婆經過了Irvine的Diamond Jamboree Shopping Center, 開車進去晃晃, 想看看開了沒, 因為之前就聽說Summer要開幕, 一直到現在都還沒有正式開幕....
剛好在85度C的餐廳前遇到一個類似工作人員(or老闆)的歐吉桑......跟我們說..........85度C大概會在九月26 or 27號左右開幕喔!!!
這樣Irvine又多了個地方可以吃飯了和買菜了!! Cannot wait!

Bike Trail (自行車小徑) in Irvine
搬來新的社區已經有一個半月了, 我們很喜歡這裡的環境, 社區也剛好在one of the bike trails in Irvine的旁邊, 上次已經跟老婆去騎了一段, 今天又趁著微風徐徐吹來的涼快傍晚, 又去騎了一次, but 這次是往山的方向走 (上次是往newport 方向), 順便帶了camera, 紀錄了沿途的風景
社區的小門出來就是一條bike trail:
整條的路面很平, 很好騎, 旁邊是一條大排水道, 可是有些段長滿了植物, 還有鳥類棲息
在經過一些主要道路的地方, 這條bike trail則採用幹道方離的方式, 由下面穿過去, 所以整條bike trail都可以避免跟車子競道, 非常的棒!
然後有些路段, 沿途還有路燈, 非常的體貼, 當然如果要晚上出來騎, 還是建議要有一些反光甚至燈光配備
有時候, 經過一些其他社區, 會有另外一條bike trail分出去, 往不同的方向去:
而剛剛提到, 這條大的排水道, 有些水多的地方, 會有鳥類棲息:
我們還看到有一個地方, 竟然還有分自行車騎的還是可以給騎馬的走的, very cool....... I wish I have a horse, too...:P
越來越覺得Irvine真是一個不錯的City. 有關bike trail around irvine, 可以參考這兩個link:

The "Native Foods" in "The Camp"
Today, we went to a restaurant called "Native Foods" in "The Camp" green mall.
The restaurant is just like a big Mongolian style tent. The seats are surrounding the counter which is in the center. High translucent ceiling with a big fan, with glass window surrounding half of the tent. It's eco-friendly nature bright. Of course, they also offer outdoor seats.
"Native Foods" provides healthy, delicious, organic scrumptious vegetarian foods. It's very interesting that there is a chalk board full of "I will not eat animals today."
What we had today is a Twister Warp with Native Fries and Green Salad. The Twister Wrap looks like having checken inside, but actually it's not checken meat, but still tastes good!
By the way, you can try their iced tea (the one in the above picture). They said the iced tea is sweeten by "Agave" not regular sugar oh!
Here is their website: http://www.nativefoods.com/
And their location is Costa Mesa: (They also have restaurants in Aliso Viejo, Westwood village of L.A., Palm Springs, and Palm Desert)
The CAMP
2937 Bristol St.
Costa Mesa, CA 92626

好康道相報
有幾天沒寫Blog了........今天來說一個在打折的東西!!
今天從朋友那裡知道一個在打折的好東西: 創見的移動硬碟 with FREE SHIPPING!
從大學的時候買電腦零件自己組裝的時候, 記憶體都會要挑創見(Transcend)的, 這是一個不錯的台灣公司. 現在他們在這個網站做Labor Day Sale with FREE Shipping on some selected items, 可以去這裡看看喔:
http://www.transcendstore.com/----portable-external-hard-drive.html
我大概跟Fry's和Bestbuy相類似的competitors比較, 價錢還不錯喔! 又不用自己跑到老遠的Fry's因為有free shipping....
而聽他們說這款: http://www.transcendstore.com/ts160gsj25m.html, 是符合美軍標準 (military grade), 所以防摔 (well.......這個自己去試試看吧, 我可不敢摔摔看..:P)
如果你有很多相片, Videos, 軟體需要備份的, 現在是時機去買一個來用用看喔, 做做文件備份, 以防重要文件lost, 然後讓你的電腦有多一點space, 就可以做硬碟重整 (這可以幫助你運行程式時, 可以快一點, 硬碟壽命也會比較長, 建議每隔一段時間就做一次, but 也不要太長做....)
