Have a "Flink!"
Some of our neighbors have been sighted floating and drinking together, or "flinking".  

Olympic Rowing Center 
The 1996 Summer Olympic Rowing Venue is just down the way.  Sign up for lessons or enjoy water-front concerts, located at the rowing venue, throughout the summer. It's a pleasure to watch the rowers train with their coaches in the early morning.  Check their schedule and go cheer on competition rowers!
