Daddy in his infinite wisdom decided a hybrid car would be the weapon of choice while in the bay.

Here it is in all its glory…

Sadly he did not realise that Toyota do a Compact version of the Prius hybrid – yep that is what we ended up with…

It has certainly been a squeeze to get all our gear into the little fella :-(. See the attached pics…..

Thankfully next week we have a full sized mini van at our disposal so the job of getting in to actually go anywhere will be reduced somewhat 🙂

Daddy arrived at San Francisco airport a little after 1pm local time today. The immigration queue was a big one so it took a further 3 hours to get down to the rest of the family in Almaden.

A nice steak dinner courtesy of the Outback Steakhouse take out finished the day off rather nicely.

We may be challenged with the small size of the rental car sadly but we will simply have to do what we can to get our gear in 🙂
