I wake late, well, I've woken up about 3 times earlier but go back to
sleep because I was up late last night doing wash. Since I've decided
to take a rest day, the issue is where to stay. I want to stay at the
motel 6 because it's easier, but it's more expensive too, so I pack up
and move to a RV park for $18. Later, as I'm walking around town for
the day I worry about all my gear left there unlocked. I did lock up
the bike, but all my clothes, tent, etc. Are free for the taking. They
say it's fine, but still a better plan would have been to have the
room for today and camped yesterday!
It's very hard to stay put today - nice and sunny with a good tailwind
if I was riding. However, one of my mistakes last tour was not
taking some rest days, so I stay put!
Walking around town I see two cycle tourists, so I go inside the
restaurant to talk to them. They are Ben and Liz, and they are going
south like I am. Today is not a rest day for them so they are just
having lunch before moving on. The waitress tells us the next stretch
is very beautiful! I got Ben's phone number, so I might possibly get
in touch in a day or so to see where they are.
I walk around town the whole day but it's not that much walking
considering the time sitting at various places. Has some ice cream,
Uquoia blackberry cheesecake and it's very good!
