Day 13 - Travel Day to Crescent City, CA

Day 13 dawned gray and rainy; but dark skies and rain couldn’t hold back the sunshine at the Adventure Caravan Pancake Breakfast!  What a feast!  Blueberry and regular pancakes, maple and strawberry syrup, ham and sausage.  Thanks to the great cooks Larry & Ada, Hex & Sandy and Spence & Madi!  What a super way to begin a travel day!!

             Everyone left at their leisure and began the looooong trip of 52 miles down the coast to Crescent City, Ca.  We saw Tom and Catherine looking for the hookups under their car – guess they found them! 

            The coastline is rugged and rocky and with the rainy weather, the surf looked like boiling water headed to the shoreline.  When we turned a little inland, the scenery was more low hills and tree covered.  At one point we crossed the tallest bridge in Oregon.

            Yay!  California!  After crossing into California we came up on a bridge that gave cyclists the right-of-way.  Naturally, there were two bikes crossing ahead of us! 

 

Driving along the highway between all the pines was like being in a long tree-lined tunnel.

At the end of the trip was our beloved orange cone – we’d made it to Village Camper Inn!
