Paramount's Great America has some very unique roller coasters. My personal favorite was Stealth. Unfortunately, Stealth, the worlds first and only flying roller coaster was removed a couple years ago and moved to another Paramount park. In its placed is a newly built water park. Of their current ride selection, I would have to pick Top Gun as my favorite. Top Gun's coaster is floorless which means your feet can dangle freely. Just as the ride is about to end, it makes a sudden turn and makes it feel like you are headed straight into the nearby lake but lifts you up just as you are about to hit the water.

My favorite theater cost $9.75 (I THINK!) for an adult ticket. I don't ever get candy here because it is really expensive and they dont have any of those gummies, all they have is stuff like Milk Duds, Red Vines, Starburst, etc (good, but not for that price.) And Im not into popcorn ($5) or drinks. I love this theater because the seats are really far apart, you will never have a head bobbing in front of your view. And you are never sitting too-close-for-comfort next to your neighbor. I think that might be why it is so expensive.

Diver Dan's Wet Pleasure at 2245 El Camino Real in Santa Clara is my favorite dive operator. I received my scuba diving training certification from them. I have referred many of my friends who have also received their certifications from Diver Dan. They have recently added a heated pool to their building so the pool training can be conducted there. The instructors are very good and they sell all the scuba equipment that you will need.

As the name suggests, this is an indoor kart racing joint. I went there with a few friends for a Friday night outing and everyone had a lot of fun. We saw a safety video first, then wore our racing gear and went for racing. Then we finished by getting our scorecards in the inside cafe and enjoyed snacks. Everyone loved it.

Triton Museum Of Art at 1505 Warburton Ave in Santa Clara is our favorite local art museum. Our favorite exhitbition is when they have the glass show where all the local glass artistis come and sell their glass creations. Their most famous item is their pumpkin festival where they sell thousands of glass pumpkins. It is lots of fun to go to every year even if you end up not buying any pumpkins. Which will not happen.

We have been members at Planet Granite for over a year and have really enjoyed it. The gym has a wide variety of levels (5.7-5.12+) with the majority of climbs at the 5.10/11 level. I love climbing there. The staff is super friendly and always helpful. Evenings can be busy, but you can almost always find another climb to try.
I highly recommend it!

This is a nice place to go if you want to have a quick gamble instead of going all the way to vegas. It is clean and up and running 24 hours a day. The food is good too. Ofcourse you wont get a full course meal as in vegas but, what the.. if you just want to gamble, spend some money and enjoy. happy gambling right in the middle of silicon valley

took a bunch of kids for a birthday party, but got the tickets at a discount, toooo many people the lines for the good rides were ridiculous, and the food prices were astronomical, not enough areas to just sit and relax, plus the water was freezing the kids couldn't have fun cause they were so cold
