During our stay in the US, my son John took vacation time to arrange a trip for our extended family to go to Gilroy Gardens Family Theme Park. There are a lot of children-friendly rides; my sisters' grand kids and us older folks all had fun taking rides and driving toy cars. It's so much fun to be a kid again.
The Gilroy Garden has a very unique tree collection; it's called the Circus Trees. They were created by a man in the 40s then rescued by Michael Bonfante, the previous owner of the Gilroy Gardens. In the background of the second picture is one of the circus trees. For more information about these unique trees, see http://www.gilroygardens.org/circus.html

Gilroy is the Garlic Capital of the world. Fuming and John are both allergic to garlic. We teased them that they needed to careful or they would inhale too much garlic smell and cause allergy attack. Luckily nothing happened.

It was a very memorable day.
