Ah. Was southbound from Davis to Oakland last summer, and realized I went right
through Berkeley (horrible traffic, around 430pm). At one point, the freeway
was very close to the water, and I’m not sure if I saw any distant bridges or
not.
In any case, the rolling hills around Vallejo (? whatever towns I drove through
from Davis to Oakland) were fantastic to drive through. Would make for very
many GBee style photos if I had the time to stop for photos.
