Gaaarlic

A couple weekends ago, we went to the Gilroy Garlic Festival.  I’d always wanted to go and we finally went!  We drove down to Redwood City to meet up with Jason who then drove us the rest of the way.  We got there early enough to get parking at a reasonable spot and caught the shuttle over to the fairgrounds. Stephanie and her husband also met up with us and we also bumped into Jimmy and Eleen!  Cool.

It was warm and sunny but so pleasant.  We visited every Beer Station on the grounds and even waited in line for the Free Garlic Ice Cream.

It was good but the garlic aftertaste was kinda weird.

We snacked on garlic shrimp and garlic bread and also enjoyed some tasty BBQ and grilled corn on the cob.  We had fun tasting stuff and people-watching.  I’m glad I finally got to go but I’m not sure I’ll have to go every year.
