Thanks! Float Addicts is a combined sales/rental outlet and clubhouse for "One Wheel" roller boards. (See http://www.onewheel.com for details..) There is almost always a small gang of onewheelers hanging out there in the late afternoon/early evenings (at least there are in non-lockdown times). One of these days, I'm going to rent one and go find a nice grassy field to learn how to ride and control one of these things. They look like tremendous fun, a road-going, electric snowboard … and a good workout too. But I won't try to learn to ride one on pavement... :)
I go to Japan Town for Mexican food because Taqueria Corona has really good food and the people there are great… But I also go to the excellent Japanese and Korean restaurants there, as well as Roy's Station (one of my favorite cafes). My favorite Japanese restaurant, however, is Truya Sushi—just a mile or two up the road in Santa Clara near me. G > On Feb 7, 2021, at 8:42 AM, Daniel J.
