Destination #1:
San Jose Flea Market

Get off at Berryessa Station and follow signs for the flea market, just west of the station entrance.
Note that there is a $5 entrance fee. You do not have to enter the Flea Market to solve the riddle.
Transit App Location:
Berryessa/North San Jose Station
Riddle #1:
Look for a thing near the entrance that probably used to travel many places but now sits perfectly still.
Destination #2:
San Jose City Hall
Take VTA's Rapid 500 bus from Berryessa to Downtown San Jose and get off at Santa Clara and 2nd. The journey will take 12-15 minutes.
Hop off and explore the area: City Hall is the modern, ornate building to your left.
Transit App Location:
San Jose City Hall
Riddle #2:
Circles are everywhere at this place. Look for a line of them and snap a photo with your ID in the center of the circles!
Destination #3:
Paseo de San Antonio
From City Hall, walk through the heart of Downtown San Jose to Paseo de San Antonio.
Discover the restaurants and shops hidden in the city's best pedestrian area, or detour one block to check out San Jose State University.
The walk will take 5-10 minutes.
Transit App Location:
Paseo de San Antonio
Riddle #3:
Find a plant (not from the street but from a specific place on the street!). Plants abound at a specific spot on this street. Take a photo of a plant with your Cal 1 Card visible.
