Today I took Caltrain to Sunnyvale to meet an old friend of mine. The train was pretty crowded on my way there, but the train was even more crowded on my way back.

In Menlo Park, a group of pub crawlers boarded the train. They were heading to Belmont for another pub. The train quickly became standing room only.

The convenience and affordability of day pass made such trips possible, and Caltrain is a great way to get around especially when these folks shouldn’t be driving.
