Yep, a little out of the way. Nice drive to the SF Bay Area though. :)

Many years ago, a friend and I drove from LA to SF (well, he drove, I was along for the ride). Going up, we took the 5 over the Grapevine (no snow, this was in mid-July) up to a highway where we cut across going west and picked up US 101 in Gilroy (the garlic capital of the world, and I must say, it was rather "fragrant" as we passed through). Once on 101, we stopped by Stanford University (even went up into the Hoover Tower, then on in to SF. Returning to L. A., we took 101 down to Oxnard, then picked up California 1 (PCH) on in. This was a summer Sunday afternoon, so we picked up traffic in Santa Barbara (back then (1989), US 101 didn't run through as a divided highway, there was a brief segment of "street running" and the attendant traffic. More traffic around the Ventura/L. A. County border, then finally, traffic on PCH through Malibu was a nightmare. Still a fun drive. :)
