And how could you forget the Mystery Spot! On Branciforte Drive off Soquel Avenue (or is it Soquel Drive?), the Mystery Spot is one of the old-fashioned tourist traps which used to dot the highways in the old days before interstates and Dennys. The Mystery Spot is a place where the law of gravity is supposedly defied and balls roll uphill. (Take a level and measure it to be sure. They have a level and invite people to measure to be sure.) Then there are the two cement slabs where people can stand and look taller or shorter than each other, depending on where they stand. And the trees -- look up and they're going straight, but look WAY up and they're crooked toward the top as if the whole ground shifted.
