Stand in the center of Amundsen Circle and look at the monument to Roald Amundsen. This small park is mostly a clearing with trees, offering a quiet starting point away from the traffic on Amboy Road.
12:10
Walk four minutes to Ambrosino's Pizzeria for lunch. It is open from 11:00 to 21:45 on weekdays, so it will be ready for a midday meal.
12:50
Take a three-minute walk to Oakwood Diner. Even if you are full, the atmosphere is worth a quick coffee or a sit-down rest. It opens at 08:45 on weekdays, so it is comfortably open.
Local tip
