Berkeley Kite Festival
The Berkeley Kite Festival is held at Highline Kites at the Berkeley Marina. They have free valet bike parking where we will park our bikes. We plan to just grab whatever food is sold there for lunch.

Dinner at Hong Kong East Ocean Seafood Restaurant (Optional)
If we get back late from the kite festival, we might just eat dinner at the Hong Kong East Ocean Seafood Restaurant. The food is very good, though it costs an arm and a leg due to its location and terrific views of the bay.
