10/6: The guidebook said that Nevada City was a pretty little town, built by newly rich golddiggers back during the gold rush in the middle of the 1800s. So, even though it was slightly out of our way, we thought it could be worth a visit. Maybe we could even find a good motel there and stay the night.
Well, boy, were we wrong. Sure, it was pretty, looked like something from an old western movie. But really, it didn’t feel real! The place was just full of tourists and all the motels were super expensive. After just an hours walk up and down the main street, we decided that we didn’t want to stay for a minute longer, got into our car and started driving south on the 49.
