LA to SLO May 2007

[69Sman]

Stephan - I will post a map, or link to a map, of the meeting place(s).

Marco, doesn't really matter to me where we all depart from. I was suggesting that your group meet up with the Starbuck's group after your breakfast. We will be further north on the 101, can meet up there, and caravan all together.

Stacy, Marco, et al.....

Tony and I spoke today. The offramp for the bowling alley/coffee shop is only 2 offramps from Marie Calenders...
Since the coffee shop will be open earlier, LETS MEET THERE..

Thorsten and I will still be leaving Newport at 6. Beat the rush hour traffic.
Arrive at Woodlake Bowl between 7-7:30? Wait for everyone to show. Have breakfast,coffee?
Leave for SLO 9-9:30? Take the scenic route to SLO.

Tony,Marco, please post the address of Woodlake Bowl. We can Mapquest it from there.
