Day 40- On to New Adventures

Our leader, Ken, and Pat drove off at 0700 to head back to Vancouver, so our last drivers meeting was held at 0830 in the motel lobby with breakfast. Three Morgans needed to be dropped off at Bobac for shipping (Paul, Manu, Colin with Callie above). Colin and Callie needed to get to San Francisco with baggage, Paul and Marie Isabelle and Manu and Annick needed to get to San Francisco for the day. The final plan was that  the  4 drivers would drive to Bobac, Kathy would pick up Manu and Paul, bring them back to the motel and pick up Annick and Marie Isabelle, then take them to BART or the Ferry to San Francisco. We were to pick up Colin and Callie from Bobac and take them to the city. We headed to Bobac about 10 minutes after the entourage left. No morgans had arrived. Eventually they made it to Bobac via the scenic route of Alameda. Still getting lost after all these weeks. Ultimately we made it to SF with Colin and Callie but on the way Alan called looking for Bill Finks mobile #, as his Morgan battery was completely dead- not even push starting worked.  We gave him the number and hope he was successul in getting his Morgan to where it needed to be. We also had noted that Roger and Linda were stopped outside the Alameda tube with their hazard flashers on. They weren't there when we returned, so we hope all is well with them and their trip to Sonoma. Susan and Richard also toook off for more Morganning heading down to Carmel. Linda headed to SLO in her mini. Eventually we arrived home after a VERY WONDERFUL trip. Thanks to everyone. As I sort through pictures more will be posted.

  2. Hi Elaine
    I miss your terrific blog already! I looked forward to reading it every morning whilst the kettle boiled and so admired your stamina after a long day driving. It takes a very organised a dedicated person to type up a blog every evening and I really appreciated your hard work. So glad you all arrived at your destination safely having had a wonderful time. I look forward to hearing more about the trip in the coming months. Lol Pauline and Peter xx
