Our
roving reporter
Shayna Rubin posed her question on Saturday, Aug. 7, in front of Noe
Valley
Bakery.
Sita
Patel, Alvarado
Street: I
went to New York City
to visit my in-laws, went to Puerto Rico to visit my brother, and went
camping
in Tahoe. I also worked this summer.
Sandra
Halladey, Castro
Street: I
took my two children
to England to the Isle of Wight 40th Anniversary Festival, which is the
last
place Jimi Hendrix performed. My parents took me and my sister there
when we
were younger, so this year my sister and I took our kids to experience
it.
Gareth
Gwyn, 24th
Street: I
went to Turkey this
summer to a sports club. I also went to London to see family, to
Brussels for
dinner, and to Stockholm for business and for some fun.
Nancy
Evans, Cesar
Chavez Street: This
summer I went to
Oregon and visited friends on the Oregon coast. It was a low-budget
year. I
also worked from home this summer.
Emily
Doe, Sanchez
Street: I
went to Vietnam with
my sister this summer. We were there for five weeks, so we got to see
the whole
country. The people there are friendly and welcoming. However, the war,
though
it is four decades later, is still relevant there. I loved taking all
the
different types of transportation around the country. The food was
amazing and
it is a beautiful country.
Warren
Browner,
Homestead Street: I
am going to Utah to
see Bryce and Zion [national parks] and to Arizona to see the Grand
Canyon. In
June I went to Hawaii.
Anjuli
Fiedler, Cesar
Chavez Street: This
summer, at the end
of June, I moved into Noe Valley from Berkeley so my commute to work
would be
shorter.
Andre
Srinivasan, Duncan
Street: I
looked for a job in
the game industry this summer. It’s looking promising, but I don’t want
to jinx
it by being too optimistic.
Nina,
Dale, Carolina,
and Samantha Hill, Sanchez Street: This
summer we are renting a beach house in Carpinteria,
California. We wanted to get away but in a reasonable driving distance.
Sonia
Garieff, Castro
Street: This
summer I went to
Yosemite. It was beautiful. I tried to climb Half Dome, until about
halfway
through when I realized that if I let go I would fall.
