Adventures Roughly Home: Exploring Without A Car

 

 While nosotros had fun inward Baja, the bumpy dirt roads to the beach weren't to variety to our wheelchair lift.  Not long afterward nosotros returned home, it began to brand all sorts of awful noises before quitting altogether.  The local mobility dealer said they could gear upwards it merely they had to lodge parts as well as nosotros had to aspect (it would eventually accept over iii weeks).

 Being stuck inward the trouble solid is no adventure, fifty-fifty for a homebody similar Tim.  The entirely decent eatery inside walking distance to our trouble solid is a pizza parlor (which nosotros walked to the get-go week) merely afterward two weeks, amongst cabin fever setting inward as well as our anniversary appointment arriving, nosotros had to create something.

Consulting our local motorcoach company's spider web page, nosotros found that the draw past times our trouble solid would easily accept us to Pasadena or Claremont, both fun places to kill time. We chose Claremont as well as walked to the motorcoach stop.

It's close an lx minutes ride to the Metrolink Train Depot inward Claremont, where the motorcoach drops us off.

 It's a really pretty college town. If you lot saw our earlier study on Claremont or it's doppleganger...Davis, inward northern California...you tin instruct a glimpse of what we're inward store for.

Browsing the shops, Letty gets around custom made lotion at i of the shops as well as I instruct this mini Hohner harmonica at i of the world's best music stores, the Claremont Folk Music Center.

Hungry for dinner, nosotros halt upwards at the Press for around vegetarian lasagna as well as drinks. It's OK, merely Letty is non happy amongst the lazy service or the breadstuff that comes out amongst the hardness of a hockey puck.

 She declares nosotros volition non hold upwards darkening the door of this institution again.  No worries, we've all the same got Eureka!, Union on Yale, Aruffo's, as well as many to a greater extent than restaurants we've all the same yet to endeavor here.

After dinner, nosotros instruct amongst something much to a greater extent than reliable, dessert at Bert as well as Rocky's H2O ice cream parlor.


Grabbing around candy to go, nosotros caput over to the nearby motorcoach halt to grab our ride home.
