There was a Miata in front of me heading S but he pulled over and let me by which is typical, especially from the locals. On the way back N I got behind an 18 wheeler who wouldn't let me by. He was literally all over the road. A hazard to somebody heading the other direction in some of the curves. It was especially irritating since I had pushed it only a little heading S to check out the road condition. I was really planning on going like Hell on the way back. C'est la vie!

Where do you recommend staying for us vacactioners. Something ideal to drive all the major roads there, including the skysomethingorother. A b&b is OK, but anyplace with cable and breakfast works for me!!
