Hello Cape Disappointment! This is our final state park in Washington before heading over the Columbia River and into Oregon. Nothing too disappointing here except the giant hill to get up here. Rigel and I left Twin Harbors Saturday morning around 8 and rode two days worth in our book to the state park; about 130km! It was a pretty flat ride the whole way with a few big hills throughout. We've met up with Maggie, Bryan and Kirsten again and now Kirsten's parents and partner, Kris, have joined us for the night.
We had great weather for our ride but now since were back on the coast its raining and misting again, very different from the thunderstorms of Manitoba. Apparently there is a nice beach here but I think we will mostly stay in our campsite tonight since its so cold and wet out. We did ride into Ilwaco today for some clam chowder and fish and chips, delicious! Later we are going to cook up a tuna steak and drink more local ciders.
Next stop we head into Oregon, either Astoria or perhaps Seaside. Rolling the couch surfing dice again! In Twin Harbors I ended up painting 2 more small watercolours, and Rigel tried out surfing for a couple days. The crazy things is that, even though the sun is hidden by misty cloudy fog all the time, Rigel still got a bad sunburn around his eyes from removing his glasses to Surf.
