We headed south towards Santa Cruz. The wind farm just on the edge of the Interstate Highway was amazing. We decided to do a splash more shopping before we got to Santa Cruz - not that we hadn't already seen enough shops!The next morning we had a quick look at Google Maps as we'd be travelling the previous day without a detailed map of California which makes navigation a bit tricky when you have multiple main highways running in parallel - "winging it" was not an option today.
Our first stop along the way was the Apple HQ at Cupertino. We drove onto the campus and proceeded to drive around "Infinite Loop" - a cool name for a street and saw lots of press hanging around the side entrance to the press conference for the new MacBooks.Next stop was Mountain View to have a look at the GooglePlex. Just a few minutes down the road and we were there. Again we drove around the buildings and had a good look. The atmosphere at both Apple and Google was really cool - these guys sure know how to build a really nice work environment - plenty of open and green areas for their staff to chill out. We then got back onto the 101 and headed for San Francisco.
