Capital Flea Market is a fun, open-air market place with bargains galore! It has more private sellers (average folks selling their belongings) where as many of the large swap meets are now heavily populated by businesses offering discounted pricing because of the low overhead. There are businesses, but not to the exclusion of the private sellers.
And it is the private sellers that bring the most wonderful treasures! Come out to the Capital Flea Market and discover your next treasure!

Happy Hollow Park and Zoo is a great place to take small children. The park has been open since the 1960's and has been the favorite place of generations of San Jose children.
Among the gentle childrens rides is every child's favorite pal- Danny the Dragon!!
Danny is a dragon who allows park visitors to ride on his back and takes them on a magical journey through the park! Parents will see a train with a molded fiberglass body shaped like a dragon. But for those of us who grew up with Danny, he'll always be a real dragon! :-)
Even parents will be mystified when they realize that Danny has no tracks to follow and that his driver doesn't do any actual driving. So how does Danny move?!! Magic perhaps?!!
The secret is a rare, 1960's era gyroscope mechanism. Danny is the only dragon left like this and he is a rare treasure!
Bring your little ones for a day of enchantment!
Connected to the park is the Zoo. There are a wide variety of animals that will delight youngsters, including a petting zoo where they can feed alfalfa pellets to the friendly animals.
Stay with very small children in the petting zoo area. Sometimes the pygmy goats get a bit pushy when they want the alfalfa pellets!

If your kids like video games, but if it feels like you're dropping enough cash to pay their college education into the coin slot of their favorite games, Nickel City will be a refreshing change.
Believe it or not, most games really are just a nickel!! Some are even free!! The fee depends on how new the game is. The newest may cost as much as 4 nickels at the most.
It's a fun place to take the kids. My one issue with it is that they could use a better ventilation system. The enclosed area is packed with kids hyped up on their games and working up a sweat. It smells a bit like a locker room. But I can deal with that for the savings!!

This is the kind of place that would be neat and interesting and unusual everywhere, but even more so smack dab in the middle of San Jose. Surrounded by strip malls and a movie theatre this grand house is the last hting you'd expect to see on the outside, but it is even more so on the inside!
The WInchester Firearms heiress who built the house believed that if she did not lalways have construction going on it she would suffer a terrible fate. So the house is full of bizarre nooks and crannies, staircases that go nowhere, hidden rooms and other bizarre things. There are many tours of the house and they are all worth taking. Especially fun are the mystery themed tours they do at Halloween.
Give yourself a treat and try this place out!

Long ago during the early days in the 70s, Eastridge was known as one of the reknown malls in the past. And recently for a lengthy time it was overshadowed by the rise of great shopping centers like the Westfields (Valley Fair & Oakridge), Great Mall, Santana row and such. Recenty it has undergone a renovation, a completely new interior thats gorgeously stunning, book stores, new shops all over, movie theaters and you can bet fine dining. Check it out as many parts of the mall are open again during the renovation, Eastridge will definitely be a key factor to restoring or enhancing the community in the Evergreen area and those around Tully, Story and such. Check it out during renovation!

Raging Waters Water Theme Park at 2333 South White Road in San Jose is my favorite water park. They have so many different types of water rides. I have enjoyed this place many times with my family. We can easily spend the entire day here. I have been here with large groups of people. They can provide for birthday parties and companies can even hold they company picnics here. The attractions move fast enough that you will not be bored waiting to ride.

The truly great thing about this place is that you dont really see a lot of places like it. Have you ever been in a house that is supposedly haunted? I dont think I have, before this. The whole time I was hear i was really freaked out. I am one of those people who is afraid of EVERYTHING! I was holding on to my sister so tightly! Other people who have gone have told me that they actually got lost there. I can't even imagine what I would do or how I would get out. They lead tours and tell you about it. You see all the random staircases and doors that lead absolutly nowhere. Try it, if you dare.
