We are in Crescent City California (at another Best Western) after spending a day driving through the Avenue of the Giants (Redwoods).We tried to get Bob's truck to drive through one of the Redwoods (tourist trap).  We were a little worried we would get stuck so decided to take a picture of it IN FRONT of the tree instead!  Awesome sights! 

We stopped for lunch at a little town called Ferndale, very Victorian, pretty and interesting.  I had a sandwich made of creamed cheese, black olives, lettuce and avocado on sour dough bread - awesome.  I'll have to try it at home.

We are getting a little weary of 'coastal' driving.  We travelled 250 kms and were on the road for 8 hours so that should tell you how windy and hilly the roads were.  So we are heading inland and heading north through Oregon.  Apparently it is beautiful and has a lot of state parks, etc.

What an exciting and beautiful trip - sure there are many more 'different' spots to come.

Well on to another SkipBo card game!
