New in Lafayette.

Well, I know I haven’t updated  this blog for two month. I moved to East Bay in California in the middle of Feb, and went back to my hometown, Taiwan for three weeks. Now I’m still getting used to everything here.

This city is Lafayette. It’s a place with the population of 2,3000, a place that is most quite and peaceful city I have ever lived in. I’m so surrounded by threes, flower and hills. Good for my eyes? I know!

This public is the first place I like. It was remodeled and reopened in Nov, 2009. This is a corner in the build with a special installation on the ceiling.  Lights reflect on the wall and floor whenever sun light moves. I could see rainbows underneath the table and on my feet. One more cool thing about the library is that, there is a used bookstore. All the books are donated by others, so prices for each book are really cheap. I only spent 2 bucks to get Seth Godin’s book.

Another places got media’s attention in Lafayette is the hillside memorial. The land owner built a collection of crosses in 2006 on his land near the BART station. Each cross presents  U.S soldiers’ death in Iraq.

Honestly, I’m not used to the broadness of this place. It’s not so city to me. Hopefully, I’ll find out more interesting spots of Lafayette soon. =)
