Liddle Date!

After my last attempt to find the Berkeley waterfalls ended in a muddy face-plant, I never thought I'd go back. But I finally succeeded yesterday, with Kate's guidance! It couldn't have been a cuter date: biking mid-finals, then (stupidly) climbing up the waterfall (or in Kate's case, stepping in). 

Either way, the waterfalls were much more impressive than I thought. It really was a tiny oasis in the middle of Berkeley, with no sign of surrounding city life. The waterfall is behind Cordonices Playground, up a few secret trails. For detailed directions how to get there, see Weekend Sherpa.
