| |
| ## How to reach GerritForge from the San Jose Airport |
| |
| __By Taxi__ |
| |
| [Uber](http://www.uber.com) and [Lyft](http://www.lyft.com) are the most popular ways of moving |
| around in the Silicon Valley. Use them if you are concerned about not finding parking space in Sunnyvale. |
| |
| __By Car__ |
| |
| The travelling time from the San Jose Airport to downtown Sunnyvale is typically around 20 mins. However, |
| traffic conditions change rapidily in the Silicon Valley and the best route changes consequently. |
| |
| Under normal conditions (very early morning, late evening and week-ends), the best route is: |
| - Get on CA-87 N from Airport Blvd |
| - Take US-101 N to N Mathilda Ave in Sunnyvale. Take the exit for Mathilda Avenue S from US-101 N |
| - Continue on N Mathilda Ave. Drive to S Murphy Ave |
| |
| ## Parking |
| |
| There are several options for parking in the area. See the map below. |
| |
| Please note that on Saturday morning, a farmer’s market runs in Murphy Avenue, therefore this street is closed |
| for cars and the area can get busy with pedestrians. |
| |
|  |
| |
| ## Hotels and Places to Stay |
| |
| GerritForge has agreed a discounted rate for the [**Wild Palms Hotel in Sunnyvale**](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Wild+Palms+Hotel/@37.3515259,-122.0158228,17z/data=!4m11!1m2!3m1!2sWild+Palms+Hotel!3m7!1s0x0:0x74dd551c58050b4a!5m2!4m1!1i2!8m2!3d37.3515217!4d-122.0136338), |
| 910 E Fremont Ave, Sunnyvale, CA 94087. |
| |
| Staying in the same Hotel helps __to reduce the overall carbon footprint__ of the event by leveraging Carpooling |
| and saving costs on the transfer via Taxi or Shuttle. |
| Also, allows continuing the __networking of the event with the other participants__ to the Hackathon and Summit. |
| Most of the Gerrit maintainers and contributors will stay at the same Hotel, so you would have more chances |
| to have interesting conversations. |
