led the last chapter in our long journey leave us through one of the most beautiful streets in the world, the Highway 1
We started in Sunnyvale, a small town located in Silicon Valley and drove past the headquarters of some of the largest IT companies; including Oracle, Adobe, Symantec and EA were on our way. A small detour we have done because I really wanted to try a ride on the Infit Loop, the road that leads to the Apple headquarters in Cupertino.
