We decided to leave the house after I got home from work, in order to waste as little of time as possible for sight seeing and visiting on the few days that we were able to get away.
The sunset was gorgeous out the window as we drove South on I-5.
We decided to take a break at a rest stop around 1:15 am, so that we would not arrive at our friends place prior to 8:00 am, so back on the road by 4:15 am. This of course meant that we arrived in the San Francisco area during morning rush hour traffic. Luckily, we went around the city for the most part and were also able to take advantage of the HOV lane with their being two of us in the truck.
This is before the sun was completely up, I think I was looking towards San Francisco.
Blurry picture through the window of the city.
The first Palm trees that I saw on the trip.We had breakfast at a great place in Union City with our friends Ryan and Cristi, then hung out with them for a bit, before heading over to our hotel in Half Moon Bay to check in. I really wish that I had taken more pictures of Half Moon Bay, it was a very small town on the coast, but I didn't, it will have to wait until we go back. Later in the day, we met Ryan and Cristi and our other friends Wayne and Olga at a little brew pub on the water. After we ate, we walked over to the water front and saw the coolest pirate ship.
Tomorrow, I'll post our visit to San Francisco with our friends, Wayne and Olga.

Can't wait to see the photos: San Fran is so lovely! I can't believe you drove all night after working. I'd be so exhausted. :}
Technically, I didn't drive, I just stayed awake to keep DH awake:-) Which was still tough, got to go to sleep early the next day!
