California Road Trip

Moved from southern to northern California.

Day 1:
Picked up our rental car, loaded all our belongings, checked out of our apartment, dropped off recycling and donations, picked up sandwiches and got on the road.

Took 1-5 from San Diego to some place south of San Francisco, where we got onto route 198(?) for a more leisurely stroll across to highway 101. Then up to SF where we crossed the Golden Gate Bridge (DB's 3rd time, my fourth) and then stopped at a hotel in Navato.

Total time on the road: 12 hours
Total miles: 630

Day 2:
Complementary waffles and ping pong at our hotel before getting on the road. Back down to SF to view the bridge from the old artillery, then a very long and leisurely drive up highway 1 until we could cut across on 116 and 12 to Santa Rosa. Took 101 the rest of the way up, enjoying gorgeous scenery. We reached our final destination in Humboldt County around 7pm.

Total time on the road: 9 hours
Total miles: 320
