Eureka

We left Susanville after a lazy morning and drove straight to Burney Falls. As the temperature reached 38 degrees celcius it was nice cooling down next to a waterfall with a stream directly from the mountains. We took some mandatory photos and drone shots, before moving on. Our next quick stop was in Redding where we had lunch in the form of hotdogs with garlic sauce, roasted garlic, and sweet potato fries with garlic dip - a very nice (and garlicy) lunch! The next hours spent on the road to Eureka was exhausting as the roads felt like they were wrapped tightly around the mountains. During these 3 hours we didn’t see any straight roads, and it didn’t help that trucks were passing by with 80 km/h. After 7h on the road we reached Eureka. As we came closer to the ocean, a sudden fog appeared and the temperature dropped to 15 degrees. Eureka surprised us with dead streets and strange people everywhere. After doing some quick grocery shopping and having dinner we went straight to bed. In total we drove 450km this day.
Tomorrow: Redwood National & State Parks.Read more
