So, although I had a nice, peaceful drive from Napa to Emeryville to catch my train, Joyce and Nancy arranged to have a taxi pick them up mid-morning to take them to a bus to San Francisco International Airport. When they got to the bus, they found themselves amongst a busload of 49ers fans. Probably wasn't too relaxing for them! But they said that the trip was fun, uneventful, and got them to the airport in plenty of time for their plane.
We had originally thought that they would drop me off at the train and then do a little sightseeing in San Francisco before catching their plane. However - San Francisco was insane that weekend with a 49ers game, America's Cup Sailboat Race, Navy Week, a huge Blue Grass festival at Golden Gate Park, the country's largest Columbus Day Parade, a huge Greek Festival, and several smaller fairs, festivals, and farmers markets. Given all the traffic we had last week, we thought it smartest to split up and none of actually try to drive into the city. Good decision!
