A long drive

An early start, 4.30am. Glad to see I’m getting back to normal. After a few coffees, breakfast and a bit of packing, we headed away from Mount Rainier in the direction of Tacoma. Somewhere between Tacoma and Olympia, we stopped at Walmart (fast becoming a favourite) before continuing north around the Olympic peninsula.

Everything reminded me of the coromandel, little seaside towns, single lane roads, traffic…

Getting fairly desperate, we stopped for lunch at a nice little picnic area along lake pleasant. Cheese and coleslaw wraps with coffee for lunch.

Just another half an hour drive and we reach our campground. 3 rivers resort is a wooded area with RVs and is in our tent.

Rialto beach is a few miles away, it’s a pebble beach and the sun is hot so we don’t stay too long. Plus, it’s Saturday and busy, maybe we’ll come back on Monday?

We return to the campground for dinner and a warm evening.Leggi altro
