Hitchhiking vlog #1



Hooray! We have a vlog! If you'd like to follow us on YouTube, our username is andjuggling.
A little plug for our camera: It's a Sony Cyber-shot, and it fit within our budget! We got it from the Kamera Korner in San Jose, owned by Stina's Papa Bob.

A follow-up to the video:
We were passed by three police cars total, at least one San Jose City Police and one County Police, and none of them stopped. We waited an hour with the sign with no luck. Then I put the sign down and just held out my thumb and we got a ride within 2 minutes to Fremont. Then in Fremont we tried without the sign for 10 minutes, then 5 with the sign and the man who picked us up said he never picked up hitchhikers, but he saw that the sign said San Ramon and he stopped for us. In which situations a sign may be beneficial vs. counterproductive are still a matter for debate.

Enjoyable. Does take a while to load during which time it appears blank.
