    My E30-bonding trip up the Californian Coast (*see page 2 for film*)

    After school got out last week, a few friends and I decided to take a trip. We moved out of our dorms and apartments and packed everything into my car. Then we headed up north. Stopped a few times in Orange county, Los Angeles, then headed to San Luis Obsipo. In SLO, we met up with two other friends and together we headed to camp in Morro Bay, Ca.

    On Sunday, we took a day trip from San Luis Obispo up north to Big sur for some solid hiking and whatnot. We took the Vanagon because unfortunately, we couldn't fit all of us + our gear into the E30. It was pretty cool driving around in the VW though, it was my first time in one.

    PS: Sorry about the iPhone photos. I reluctantly dropped off my 2 rolls of 35mm at a local shop here in Berkeley to get developed this afternoon, and it'll be a day or so before they get developed. Crazy at the price for this service these days, I'm only getting these developed and .jpeg 1024 pixel scanned (no physical prints) and it's gonna be just under $35! :hitler:. I got prints and a scan for one roll back down in San Diego last week for $13 :(. Anyways, enough of me ranting on a non-BMW topic. Here are the iPhone pics, I'll post the slr ones later. :up:

    So there we have it. My E30's done a lot for me now. It's been my moving-truck, sports car, grocery getter, my sleeping accommodations, and much more. Here's to many more good memories and miles in the E30!

    Cheers,
    Sina

      Jelly. The PCH is by far the nicest highway to drive on in the US.

        Even with all the BS in california...the crazy laws and such it has some unrivaled scenery. I hope to see the ocean in person one day.

                    Carving those narrow roads up and down the coast is a blast! Nothing beats a good roadtrip with some bros!

                        lol, sleeping in e30 looks way more comfy in stock seat...fixed seats are not the business.

                              Nice! There is something so great about long trips with the windows down and no AC.

                              I'm assuming you dont have working AC, because E30?
