San Francisco to Modesto

We arrived in San Francisco mid-afternoon, picked up our rental car at Hertz (thanks to AAA it only cost 28 bucks!) and headed to Modesto. Along the way we found a fun road winding up into the hills following along small houses tucked away from the hustle and bustle of life below. Unfortunately the road was blocked after only a few miles, so we had to turn back and drive the main roads to Modesto. We found a fantastic little Thai restaurant called SalaThai, where I tried sweetened coconut milk from an actual coconut and Zach tried some Thai beer (of course). Once we checked into the hotel, a dip in the pool and a soak in the hot tub and then we were off to bed - long day and maybe a bit of jet lag.
