Great Weekend

We had a great weekend. It started with some cleaning because we are having a very important guest coming to visit :) Then the rest of the day was spent playing! Sunday we woke up and headed to the farmers market in Campbell. We decided to eat there instead of Stacks our usual brunch spot. There is a myriad of choices every weekend, Mexican, crapes, Chinese, Indian, sausages and more. John decided on lamb curry and we all tried some vegetable somosa's. As we strolled down the market, Max wanted something to drink. I spied a coffee shop and we went in. If your tired of the Starbucks experience this coffee spot is for you. First off it was large and airy with couches as well as tables and chairs. It reminded me of Dugen's Deli a bit. Very down to earth, kinda funky meets cool meets high tech (they had several computers in one corner). Well Dugen's did not have computers and it was usually really dark but yeah, well hmm i guess not like it at all really. Unfortunately i did not catch the name. It is on the street they have the farmers market and it is on a corner and it is not Starbucks. LOL.

After me made some purchases we headed home. Along the way we noticed canopies and lots of people gathering in a large parking lot near the Bevmo. We decided to stop and see what was going on. It was a RC car racing event. There is a RC store in the strip mall close by and my guess is they where sponsoring some kind of racing event. We parked and watched a couple of races. It was amazing! I can't believe how fast they were going. John was sure they were gas powered. His estimate on their speed was about 30mph in the straight-a-way. Very cool to see.

You just never know what your going to see on the other side of a crowd of people!?
