Shopping
Treat yourself to something nice. The Nike store is one of my favorite places to visit on my evening strolls. This is a discount store and I love picking up some gear that encourages me to stay fit and healthy at a resonable price.

Zero waste traveling can be difficult. Luckily Julie owns a shop on 1st that promotes a zero-waste lifestyle. The store is always stocked and has a variety of products. It's a nice walk to the shop and you get a discount if you say you did.

Escape at the Aquarium. This place has so much to see including penguins! My favorite is the Jellyfish exhibit. Tickets are currently $37 per adult. Worth the money if you are looking for a break and a unique experience.

The owner Cody is freaking amazing and is a real talent. His shop is small so make sure you make an appointment in advance. You won't be disappointed. It's challenging finding a new barber when traveling but Americano Barber always delivers.

The closest grocery is a few blocks north of the building. It’s a Latino market so they usually have lots of fresh produce and meat. Very affordable.
