Travel Blog 3 - If you’re going to San Fran-cisco

Well on the way to it anyway...

I don't remember part of the way cause I fell asleep for an hour I think (jet lag still kicking in)

At least I saw the good bits getting out of LA and on the open road I think we pretty much took Interstate 5 most of the way.

I took the back right hand seat on the bus so I could take pictures and not disturb anyone (cause thats just the sorta person I am) but disappointed cause the window I was at seemed to be leaking cold air which made the trip unpleasent and yeah I could have changed seats(and I think I did go one forward but was still cold)

Stopped for a while for lunch just near Fresno(I think the name of the town is similar to a breed of cow and that connection will be drawn very shortly)

Ended up getting out at some stop near a Burger king... not the healthiest of lunches but I was getting very hungry at this point and was glad to have a bite to eat so... Burger King it was. Although outside the place was a not so pleasant oder. Not long up the road did I see one of the largest farms I have ever seen with so many more cows than I had ever seen in one place.

Theres a link to a sat eye view of it... omg the smell is not something I will soon forget.

It is very dry at the moment

Partway along the way we go past a car that has crashed.. caught alight and fire crews putting out the resulting fire.. looks like the fire has got underway away very very quickly..

Another highlight of the trip and a better oderous bombardment of the sences was Gilroy. Famous for everything garlic... and even before you get in town the smell of garlic is evident. Very interesting place none the less.. better than that HUGE.... F@KING HUGE cow farm or ranch as I think the Americans generally like to call it.

So we stop to drop passengers off in San Jose (me being a computer geek could get used to this city) :)

Then its offwards and onwards to San Francisco.. Past the San francisco airport and into the city its getting dark and my nerves a kicking up a notch.

Now I'm in San Fran...
How do I get to Santa Rosa (about an hours drive north.)...
