There is a universal rule. It doesn't matter what state you live in. It probably doesn't matter what country your in. The DMV takes all ever loving day. Period.
So, I have taken the CA driver's test, supposedly one of the toughest in the country. And it was hard. You've got to know things like a yellow curb is for the unloading of people and cargo. Or that it is legal to park on the street in front of a garage as long as it's your garage.
Strangely, they don't give you a driver's license when you leave. Instead, the punch a hole in the expiration date of your current license. And like all DMVs, they like to keep you guessing. So while there is a checklist of all the things you need to have when you arrive, not everything is on there. Brilliant.
It was awesome to be in line in front of a guy who was getting his tank driving license.
So Juju the MINI now has her California plates. Thankfully, she doesn't have the CA smog emissions that would take away some of her saucy character. I just hope she never forgets where she came from. England.

how's her gas mileage? Sue & i thinking of getting the convertible.
The new ones get pretty spectacular gas mileage. Mine is in he 28-30 range.
I have to admit I chuckle a bit at the thought of you in a MINI.
we talk a big game, but I doubt we'll be getting anything new anytime soon. Especially since we're planning on going home in the fall.
If you ever drive her over to Chicago, we can put her in the trunk of our 5 wagon and drive around...
Hey, where's the blog about our visit by the way?
