4: Turn LEFT onto W EASTWAY DR. (1.7 mi)



5: Turn SLIGHT LEFT onto SHAMROCK DR. (0.6 mi) At this point, you should see a Vietnamese restaurant on your left called "LANG VAN", to your right will be a park with a fenced in skateboard park. at this point, start looking on your right, you should see signs for the methodist home, and a steep driveway on your right. there will be cheap looking apartments on your left. RIGHT PAST the Methodist home will be the Museum. It sits back in the woods a bit, so once you get past the Methodist home entrance, be ready to turn. If you go all the way up to the high rise rest home on Shamrock (also on your right), you've gone too far. But there is a sign outside the entrance, so it shouldn't be too hard to find.
