If you have the time, I also recommend the drive south of Sunnyvale. Take Hwy 17 to Santa Cruz, and then back on Hwy 1 to Carmel. The 17-mile drive is worth the charge, and you can stop at Pebble Beach Golf Club for lunch overlooking the ocean and the golf course. The drive south out of Carmel through Big Sur is also worth it if you have the time.
A few weeks......those are both great suggestions Mike and Tom.

I had planned to spend a week or maybe a month in Arizona with my oldest.......but she has decided to move back to Texas and try for Med School instead of her Masters in Engineering.....and she will be gone in June when I come through.

I hope she makes it.

She still has at least one course to qualify for the MCAT........

Thanks.

BTW.......I will be leaving after my middle daughter graduates........
