[Nfbc-info] Things To Do In Oakland

[Kyle Garcia]

Hi Anita,

There are plenty of blind people in Oakland and the Bay Area in general. I
am in San Jose.On the topic of blind people in the Oakland area, if you
would like to meet some others I'd suggest attending a local NFB meeting
with the San Francisco chapter. Now as for your upcoming visit from an out
of state friend, some ideas you could do are:

-Take a walk around Lake Merritt
-Take BART over to SF and walk along the Embarcadero
-Find somewhere to have lunch in downtown Oakland, Jack London Square,
Alameda, or wherever around the city you want
-Walk around the UC Berkeley campus
-The Oakland Museum of California ($16 per person admission)
-Oakland Zoo ($24 per person)

Hopefully you find something fun to do and have a good time.

Kyle Garcia
Treasurer,
San Jose Chapter of the National Federation of the Blind of California
