    Overnight Millersylvania State park.

    September 12, 2018 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    after the hold up at Tacoma we are on our way again, but now is dark and we want to find a camp spot. We tried to locate the Olympia Campground where we have stayed before, but no luck. It is dark and we must have gone past it after the turnoff.

    I do have GPS directions for Millersylvania State park though so after heading back 3-4 miles to get back on the I-5 we start again. This time we find the park. It is dark so we find an available site and pay $30 american, no hook ups......Washington state parks are on the pricey side. after a instant noodle dinner and a walk around the campsite we realize there are hook ups also for $30, but into the middle not in the trees like we are.

    We go for a walk next morning and it is lovely. Lots of marshland, birds and a small lake for boating and swimming. Far enough off the highway that you don't hear traffic, but the trains.....anywhere you camp you seem to hear the trains!!
