First day behind!


After going to sleep at 7.30 pm and waking up at 5 am, we were ready to start our 6000-km journey. We headed out of SF at 8 am towards Yosemite National Park, where (after detouring to buy hiking shoes for me) we arrived at around 2 pm, having seen many different types of vistas on the way.

Yosemite was beautiful, especially the valley and El Capitan, but also Tioga pass road, which was the highest point where i've ever been in a car (~9600 ft ~ 3000 m).

Now we are at Bridgeport, a small town with surprisingly many motels Maybe the fishing here is especially good.

Total number of miles today: 295

Named our navigator's guidance woman voice as 'Jaanika'. This is mainly because she speaks almost-good finnish with certain pronunciation mistakes. Leyla also wanted to name the car in her burst of anthropomorhpication, but I refused.

Tomorrow.: the loneliest road through Nevada.
