We had a shorter day today 56 miles to Pismo Beach State Park. The same great weather, blue skies all the way. The route was a bit easier too so we made good time.
Although Pismo Beach itself is lovely, the State Park was disappointing. Beginning with the park attendant telling us that they had no hiker/biker sites anymore ( apparently they were closed a few years ago) and the charge per campsite was $32! Then she told us to go find a site but she was closing the kiosk and we would then have to use the self registration - quite rude really! We didn't have the proper change for the self registration so I hopped in my bike and rode to the nearest 7/11 for change then rode back and registered. There are no lights in the showers or the washrooms which makes it a bit difficult to get clean. But they do come on at dusk but go off again before dawn Anyway, we're only here for one night and tomorrow we will have another short day to Lompoc because there will be a few steep hills to climb. It might be another motel tomorrow but I can handle that. ;)
Ibuprofen has become my new best friend as my knees and elbows are beginning to protest all this hill work!
