Last Vacation

By Abdulkareem Alqahtani

After ten weeks of hard work during last quarter, spring 2011, we had decided travel to another city far away from Riverside. The first city came in my mind was San Francisco which is in the north of California. I selected San Francisco for many reasons. First reason, my best friend, Mohammad Bakeet, is living there. I have not seen him since 2009. He has received scholarship after his graduation, and he traveled to the United States of America to study master degree in engineering management at University of Santa Clara.

Second reason, I like to see the American heritage, so I had asked many American people where is the best city in California where I can see and feel the history and the heritage of California and its people. Then they told me San Francisco is the best one for you.

The third reason was Highway 1 that is best highway I have driven on. It has a fabulous sceneries on the its sides where you can see the pacific ocean on your lift side, and the green mountains or landscapes on your right side if are going from south to north. I drove by the great places on highway one like Pismo Beach, San Simon, Big Sur, Monterey, and Half Moon Bay.

The fourth reason was The Golden Gate Bridge. I had dreamed to visit this amazing structure since I studied transportation engineering at university.




It was a wonderful trip that I have decided to do it again, and I recommend it for all of my classmates to have trip to San Francisco with driving on highway one. Later, I will write down in more details about my spring 2011 vacation trip.
