desperanceWhoever is responsible for the urban planning in Sunnyvale should be bloody ashamed of themselves. Or else just declare pedestrians illegal, so that at least we know where we stand. Which is in the middle of the bloody traffic, obviously.
I just went to walk from our house to an Indian grocery less than a mile away. I probably walked a mile more than that, on account of you-can't-get-there-from-here; and frankly I feel lucky to have made it back in one piece, on account of vanishing sidewalks on major cross streets. On two occasions I had absolutely no alternative but to walk in the street for the length of a city block. Which I don't suppose is legal, and is certainly not safe.
(And then I didn't love the place when I finally got there - no kind of order in the spices, and the surliest service I've come across in the US - but that's a side-issue. I might not go back, except that it's a point of principle now...)
