Thanks.
Think I'm going to go with 9C both ways, so (weather permitting) SFO-MRY I have a shot at seeing San Francisco and then later the Monterey Peninsula during downwind. On the return, the Monterey Bay coastline and San Jose. Sun may be an issue outbound once we turn south but not during climbout from SFO Rwy 1 or downwind at MRY. Hopefully on return it's early enough (530AM) that it'll be a non-issue.
