Chris left before I did, I knew he didn’t want to ride alongside me, mainly because I’ve been covering longer distances than him. He said he’ll see me at Bullard’s Beach Park or maybe elsewhere one our journey.
I stopped at North Bend for Breakfast at another spectacular eatery (on the corner of 101 and the road towards Charleston).
At Coos Bay I found an internet café, so I stopped to upload some photos and the previous day’s portion of this god awful blog. Just as I was done another cyclist, wearing an orange top, entered the place. He was from Holland. Funny cos I’m wearing a blue top…guess we’re both needing to represent our home nations.
Took some photos at Sunset Bay and checked out the seals and sea lions basking and fighting on the rocks. I’ll be seeing more near Big Sur, so I didn’t stick around too long. I had to decide: continue on the 101 or the “old 101”. I chose the latter, which meant I’d have to climb the Seven Devils. I made it to Bullard’s and of course, proceeded South.
I stopped at Langlois to grab something to eat at the only roadside eatery (you can't miss it, Langlois is only tmade up of three buildings. A sign over the deli counter stated “over 150,000 hot dogs served”. If you ever drive by here, it would be criminal not to stop and eat one – you won’t be disappointed.
Cape Blanco campground is 9 km off the 101 and located in a spectacular basin. When I passed a herd of elk, they stopped grazing and slowly advanced in my direction. I slowly took out my camera and managed to take a shot of them gracefully taking off as one unit, clearing over a fence and through the river.
The showers at Cape Blanco were bliss.
Wildlife count: more roadkill - elk and Peking raccoon
