I went to the Bay Area, California to drive back with Stormy who was moving back to Bremerton. I do shoot two or three birds at the same time during my travels. Gloria Sicat-Reyes and Venancio Reyes were my hosts this time. Jimmy and Nellie Galang came from Fairfield and Jess and Zeny Mabagos from Alameda. Filipino party is not complete if there is not Karaoke. Jess sang with gusto and even danced with his wife. And there were plenty of foods, Jimmy's Fish Escabeche was demolished. Watch the story.

in a SMALL EUROPEAN CAFE' in SANTANA ROAD, the high end rows of designer shopping in San Jose. Gloria and Ven Reyes my hosts.

And I was once a tourist again in my first state of California, after 36 years.

And do I know how to play CHESS?

And this is Ven, attacking the plentiful foods on Glo's table.
