> Dutch Caravan Craze

Whenever I get the chance, I drive along Highway 1 in California, which mostly hugs the Pacific coast. Typically, it has one lane for each direction, and is a challenging drive as it goes up and down and all around, following the shape of the land. The views are spectacular! But the drive can be so frustrating if a slow and careful RV (recreational vehicle) is leading the way. It also annoys me because some of these vehicles are quite long, and therefore unable to truly stay in their lane as the vehicle navigates switchbacks.

Your descriptions of the holiday-themed segments are interesting; I shall hear them soon!
