At 3:30 AM? More like an excellent start to a new one!
mkwilson and I once got lost trying to head back from Berkeley/Oakland by getting on 80 East, which also happens to be 580 West. I argued that we were going east (see? look at the signs! 80 East!) and she said no, we were going west (See: sign saying 580 West). Cooler heads prevailed (or at least, heads sensible enough to pay attention to the road we wanted to be on, not just the sign that happened to be at the top), and we got home with only about a 4-5 mile detour thanks to Mkw. But, I feel your sense of adventure there ;-) we looked later and technically, neither of us was right about our direction. At the time we were actually headed north (see map) when we wanted to go east. So my point is, it is easy to get turned around in the bay area. But at least there were drunken revelers!
