I’m getting in a short, quick post before we go out for the day.

Yesterday, we drove down Routes 1 and 101 to get from Crescent City to the Bay area. It was an intense drive with some long stretches of non-stop hairpin turns, but Harrison got us to our destination safe and sound. And neither of us got carsick and puked, so that’s a win too.

The scenic (foggy) view from Rt. 1, the Pacific Coast highway:

Kitsch we found along the Avenue of the Giants:

We climbed inside some redwoods. They are immense, though even that seems like an understatement.

Oh, hai, Golden Gate Bridge (what we could see of it):

We’re staying with Matt (Harrison’s college friend) and his wife Emily in Mountain View, CA:

They have two super-spastic cats who went for a ride on a spinning chair last night: 

I also made the mistake of taking a Claritin before bed for some allergies and was up ALL NIGHT. Not awesome. I may be taking a nap in Mountain View this afternoon….
