Feb 19 Welcome to the Hotel California...


  We pull into San Elijo State Beach camp to find our spot backing on to the busy road and railway. It takes a while to convert our $35 non serviced spot to a one night $75 beach serviced spot. They have cancelled our other bookings. We will get a refund to our credit card in 4-5 weeks, right, weeks. So much for Silicon Valley influence down here.
  It is the Presidents Day holiday weekend, so busy as all get out. Hope we don't have to kowtow to their current president, who doesn't seem to be too popular here.
  We are surrounded by great grocery stores including my fav Trader Joe's - so it's off to stock up then Ted methodically gets the RV up and running, no glitches this time around to blow our hot water heater!
  It's too dark at 6pm and cold now to cook or eat out. I add onions carrots and mushrooms to TJ's clam chowder with olive oil/rosemary foccacio and wine. A good start. The trains are noisy but we are too tired to notice and go so sleep - and wake - listening to the waves crashing on the shore below our cliff side home some 2100kms from home.
