As I've explained on my blog, we've suddenly had a paradigm shift. Andy, who's been commuting from San Francisco to San Jose up to three hours a day for nearly 30 years, has decided he can't do it any more. So we've got a pad in San Jose and the terriers and I are doing the commuting -- between San Jose, San Francisco and Sonoma! It's a lot of culture shock, but I'm determined -- if I'm going to be here two or three days a week -- to find all the good things in San Jose. Silicon Valley has a reputation of being one big swath of office parks and malls, but in the older neighborhoods, the style of small one story bungalows featuring detached garages in the back, makes for miles and miles where you can walk tree and lawn lined streets without seeing a single parked car on the street.

Plus, if you scroll to the bottom of the post, you'll learn why the Germans might not know the way to San Jose. Because their version of this international hit translates to "The Coffee from San Jose is Hot."
