Road trip Part 2

Not much exciting to report today. We took most of the day off yesterday and treated ourselves to spa pedicures (we have put a lot of miles on these tootsies) and the Maxima to a nice in & out cleaning. Bob started us off with a great breakfast. You just can't beat the fresh fruit in CA! On our way out of town, we stopped to see mom at the Auto Club, say a quick goodby and we were off again. We almost beat the LA traffic......almost. It took us about 3 hours to get as far as Ventura so we left the "parking lot" and did a little shopping/walking at a great outlet center. After about an hour, the traffic had thinned so we were off again. We watched the sunset over the ocean and decided to stop for the night just north of Santa Barbara. Found a nice hotel and a cool pizza joint and we were in for the night. Today we begin our trip up the coast and should land somewhere near San Jose this evening. We are hoping to meet up with Mark's brother Dave for dinner.
