Leaving California!

Heading to Vancouver tomorrow [Flying to Seattle then getting the train up] for the next 5 days. Had a brilliant time in San Francisco - its a great city. Went on the Segway tour today which was an experience, they are really unique. Very intuitive and once you get the knack it's really easy. We spent a few hours touring the Waterfront seeing the main sights. Started off with the speed limited to 4.5mph then they sped them up to 8.5mph. Apparently unrestricted they can go 12.5mph but they can be modified to do 30mph!

Toured around the centre yesterday, at Union Square etc. Decided against going to Yosemite as I don't think a day trip would do it much justice.

Went out to Silicon Valley on Wednesday - saw Apple HQ and Google. Nearly all the major IT companies are based out there. It's a really lush area and it was very warm when I went out - job there would be good! Still planning to go to see Microsoft Campus in Redmond, Washington (Just outside Seattle).

Not many plans for Vancouver yet, hopefully it will stay dry as everyone seems to warn me to expect rain. Home on the 13th Sept so must start getting ready for that!

Heres a photo of me at the Apple Campus
