They're going to let us drive in California! =)
Can I tell you...I felt like I was 16 again. That written test was tricky! I kept thinking about how embarrassing it would be if I didn't pass, but I guessed on at least 11 of the questions (out of 36). I guess I should have read the handbook, oh well.
I also drove over both the Golden Gate bridge and the Bay bridge into Oakland, in addition to the streets of San Francisco (in our car with a stick shift)...so I feel like I passed my driver's test as well. =)
I thought I'd include a list of other things we've seen here in Cali you don't experience in Florida:
- coyote and deer in the front yard
- cactus leafs in the produce section at the grocery store
- goats to "mow" the grass on the hills
- sweaters & scarfs in the summer
