If you drive from San Jose to Mountain View in the morning and back in the evening, most lanes on 101 will be stopped at times. But you said "we"; you won't have much trouble. You can wave to the lone commuters as you speed by in the carpool lane. If you <i>really</i> want to see traffic, take 880 to Oakland and back. Any time of day, really. As for art museums, San Francisco MoMA is nice. I'm not a big modern art fan - my girlfriend dragged me there - but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Arrive on a full stomach; you can consider their restaurant's high prices as a donation to the musem, but their portion sizes are nothing but a cruel joke.
