Noelle is looking this up right now.

Go 101N to where you hit 880.  Go 880S; it may also be called 17 south.
After going around the ramp, the first exit after the 101S exit is N First
St.  Go left at the bottom of the ramp until Taylor St.  Take a left on
Taylor St and take your first right.  That's .  We're 614 on the
left near the end of the block with 2 sycamore trees in the front yard.

Would tea work?

I gave Noelle list of eligible restaurants a few weeks ago.  We'll go
over them.

Noelle was thinking of visiting Winchester House.  Probably not driving
too much would be best for the day after Thanksgiving.
