I had my camera in my laptop backpack which rode shotgun in the 911 (only other thing I had was a jacket (not needed) and water bottle and the car cover in the trunk). I pulled up to my hotel and when taking the backpack out to get my dad in the car (he drove his Honda Civic which has luxuries like side windows) I somehow managed to forget that the camera would be needed for the concours. Originally I was just thinking about meeting the check-in deadline but then I kept seeing old friends and cool cars and realized I didn't have a camera with me.
Oh well. I will see the best cars from the show again at Canepa's on Saturday.
My dad made me put the windscreen wipers on yesterday so of course today I never ran into one drop of mist, let alone rain that the Rain-X wouldn't have handled. Grr.
Highway 1 from Morro Bay to Monterey was about perfect. Clear blue skies. Awesome scenery. Irritatingly slow drivers in the best parts though.
I was wishing I had a 914 so I could take the top off and see more of the mountains. I couldn't see much above the windscreen sunshade banner and there's no sunroof in my coupe.
