First, I thought that I will write all my American (Yes, I moved to USA, California) events chronologically, but decided to change this decision. Because it will take a lot of time, and I will forget details of current events. That’s why I post the pictures of today’s visit to Google’s Headquarters - Googleplex.

The days started from our trip to Mountain View, where Portnov computer school is situated. First half of the lecture I was in the auditorium, and after went to Googleplex. The way to Googleplex took 45 minutes. It’s Saturday, so it was a desert place, only few employees were playing volleyball.

There are many Google buildings, they are situated on the both sides of Charleston Road.

Google bikes:

I have seen this volleyball pitch of round shape on Internet:

Two funny cars, are they owned by Sergey Brin and Larry Page? :))

And on the roof of this building I saw an owl. Maybe it’s Google’s access point?

Google smoking place:

I have seen “Visitors” and “Visitors Lobby” signs, so maybe it means that Google accepts visitors (maybe I’m wrong), so I need to come here on weekday.

You can easily walk on the Googleplex territory (on weekends 100%), also I’ve been sitting on a bank on Google’s yard and using great free internet access. After 10 minutes of relax I had to go back to Portnov school.

Somewhere near is situated Mozilla Foundation/Mozilla Corporation, but I couldn’t find it, and had not time to walk around a lot.
