"Whered da fish go?"




T, his Pasha, and I went to the Japanese Friendship Gardens and San Jose Historical park. T joyfully trotted up and down the many paths that wind around koi ponds and waterfalls. His favorite area was a stone bridge where huge groups of koi hid underneath. He would lay on his tummy to look under the bridge and I swear his nose nearly touched the water. Next door to the gardens was the Historical Park. We rode on an original San Jose Trolley, refurbished from the late 1800's. T was asked by the conductor to ring the trolley bell! Then we visited a train and auto museum/shed where various trolley cars, steam engines, and vintage autos originally from San Jose are being stored and maintained. I recommend visiting this park to anyone with small or school-age children to learn about and appreciate the culture and history of our city. We had a great day!
