We really enjoy stopping by Jack London Square when it's time for a break! Great restaurants (Everett & Jones BBQ can't beat), the Union Pacific Railroad tracks, a big Barnes & Noble book store, and huge ships along the Oakland Estuary.

Interested in Jazz? Yoshi's Japanese restaurant and Jazz club is the place to go!

There's portfest every year, a fun 4th of July festival, and each year there's a parade of lighted ships for Christmas.
