The story: on our annual pilgrimage for bluegrass music, hippies and camping, one year we stopped in Gilroy (home of the Garlic Festival) and visited Gilroy Gardens. It’s a combination of garden and kid’s theme park. We didn’t bring any kids but we went on some of the rides anyway. I think this picture is from this area:
Rainbow Garden
It was fun. It was a bit pricey and we might not go back, but if a person lived in the area and had kids it might be worth a membership.
The Garlic festival.
Wow. I guess no nearby cities had Garlic spoken for already. Paprika and Sage Festivals were already taken?
I’d like to go to a champagne festival. Is that possible? Or an artichoke one?

Hey the Garlic festival is a big deal! Gilroy is famous! People drink garlic wine and pretend to like it! It’s crazy. It’s a big tourist trap on the highway and it’s actually kind of cool. And they have bathrooms. I don’t think they grow as much garlic around there anymore due to White rot.

And I’ve been through Gilroy during the growing season. If you drive through with the windows open you can smell the garlic.
