This is a great outdoor ice skating rink. But unfortunatly it is closed during the summer beacause it would be too hard to keep it up in the very hot California weather. The rentals are really cheap is what I like. The ice skating part isn't expensive either, so this whole package is a great deal. Parking isn't really a problem. It is easy to find. They play good music while you skate. It is really cool to have a birthday party there (I've been to one) or just hang out there with your friends. During certain times lessons are available

My wife bought her first banjo here. It was a bit slow getting help but she got a really nice one for a good price. I also took guitar lessons through this store and had a great time. They have lots of instruments and supplies, and connections to people who give lessons on instruments of all kinds. The location is great and it is important that we support local businesses!

This local theatre is definitely the best theatre in Palo Alto. Avoid the souless, mega mall feel of the other closest movie theatres and go to the Aquarius to see the most interesting recently released independent films. It only shows two films at a time, and the runs are fairly short. It's very small and for opening nights of some hyped films (e.g., Sideways, etc), you have to get there early to get in line so you're not sitting in the back corner, or so you can even get tickets. They also have great concessions, including cookies and hot chocolate. Just saw the Aristocrats and the manager introduced the film with a short speech (and warning about the vulgarity of the movie) - it was a great communal feeling that so many movie theatres lack.

I could spend hours and thou$ands in this store! They have very unique home accessories always in touch with the latest trends.
I especially like their holiday decorations, which are quite unique and not really much higher priced than other stores, like Pottery Barn.

A pet project of a wealthy bay-area business man, the Stanford Theater harkens back to the golden age of film, and of movie stars -- when acting meant something. It exclusively specializes in "old movies" scheduling marathons of rotating subjects -- one week it may be Betty Davis, the next Cary Grant. If you dig old black and white movies, and want to see them on the big screen as they were intended, this is your chance to relax, grab some popcorn, and enjoy. Intermission (yes intermission) is still heralded by a live pipe organ, and the heavy red curtains that hide the screen when not in use lend to the lavishness of the entire experience. A true movie-connoisseurs theater! Call to find out what's playing now! It’s currently undergoing renovation and expansion. (Re-opens 6-Aug-05)
