Improvements

They seem to have finished the new terminal at San Jose, and it's gorgeous -- full of light and space and wide, graceful curves. (The fancy touch-free sensors in the baggage-claim bathroom all seem to be in need of recalibration, though.) Also, the rental car center is back within walking distance of the terminal, instead at the end of a bus ride as it has been for the last few years. This makes arrival a much nicer experience -- though descending from the seventh floor of the parking structure on a tight spiral ramp was a little dizzy-making, like a slow-motion helter skelter.

For once, it feels less humid here than in Tucson. It's certainly a lot cooler, which comes very welcome.

You're so close!

But it may as well be as far as ever.

Anyway -- the cool, that's normal summer pattern weather (that's it's correct name), mediagted by the cool offshore current that comes closer in the summer (while the warm one comes closer in the winter), but this year it's more marked than usual and the hot afternoons are just hardly ever materializing.
