| Dmitri moved to California and started working at Google on April 16, 2007. He lived at a corporate apartment in this picturesque part of Santa Clara. |
|
| He worked 12 hours a day. But on weekends he drove around the neighboring parts of the country. |
| For example, these pictures were taken on a mountainous road on the Santa Cruz Ridge. |
|
|
|
|
| |
| | These were taken at the Ocean at Half Moon Bay. Firemen were performing an exercise. | |
|

|
| |
| | The ocean is cold, few were swimming in April, but those who did wore drysuits. |

| We spent the day in San Francisco. Breakfast in a French cafe, followed by a walk to Lush, a fancy soap shop where Liza bought Stasia a box of presents and finally Presidio, a nice park near Golden Gate Bridge. The statue of Yoda is at the Letterman Digital Arts Center. |
