The Incredible Elk

Yesterday was another travel day, from Florence, Oregon, to California.

After a very nice strong coffee at Siuslaw River Coffee Roasters in the old town of Florence, we headed south for the dunes. Indeed, a lot of sand!!

 

 

We continued on the windy US-101 for most of the day, followed by the resilient layer of fog, that the sun was trying to conquer in vain.

A lot of amazing vistas along the way…

Damn elks, they shot our dinner plans!!

We sped the rest of the way, arriving in Eureka under the fog (…) with the sun setting over the Arcata Bay. We easily found L street (yes, that’s the name of the street… Some days, city planners don’t have a lot of inspiration either…) and the Carter House Inn. The Carter House Inn is an old Victorian mansion in the old town of Eureka, a beautiful building (pictures tomorrow)!! We managed to check in and still get served (we were just 30 minutes late). Dinner was fantastic!! The toughest was to choose a wine from the 102-page wine list…

Later.
