Day 16- Marco
Day of dread. The weather report looked bad and I was anticipating the worst. Instead, I learned something about riding. It can be fun, even in the rain. We opted for the back roads instead of the quick freeway route. After driving around Seattle a couple of days ago and around Portland yesterday, avoiding the freeways was a top priority for both Fer and me. We all had our rain suits on and needed them for part of the ride. But when it wasn't raining, the sky was incredible, with multi-shaped clouds, breaks of blue sky and occasional sun. And the smells of the Oregon forests near the coast were just fantastic. All in all, perhaps one of the best riding days I have had. Hotel is great with some of the most fantastic ocean views. The Oregon coast is just as you would imagine it; misty, fog in spots, some cloud cover and wide expanses of open beach.

What a beautiful shot! This looks like a part of the buffet you need a week at...
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, this is the only blue sky that we've seen since we've been at the beach. More rain forecasted for the next two days here, so we've changed plans and are headed inland.
