So we are currently in a Starbucks in Aberdeen, Washington with James Apple laptop feeling really hip. We have taken the Interstate 5 South highway so far and plan on heading out to the coast later today if we can make it then (it is currently 5:25 PM) or if not sleep somewhere and head out first thing tomorrow. The border crossing went really surprisingly smooth. I was pretty darn positive that our 1973 "hippy van" would have been searched, but the grumpy guy at the border just asked us where we were going, what we were doing, how long we'd be doing it, and he stuck his head inside the van to take a quick look (I think he was just jealous of how cool it is). But we successfully made it through without any hassle and are still currently heading South, next destination - somewhere in Oregon.
Also the first night we slept in our van, in a rest stop, and honestly there isn't much to comment about that, because we were both asleep. We saw a spot on the map called, Warm Beach, however that title couldn't have been any more misleading, the beach was minimal, pretty much all privatized, and it was far from warm. Oh well hopefully the warm sandy beaches in Cali will serve us better.
Until next time.
This is a blog about a trip James and myself are doing in a 1973 Volkswagen Camper Van. We are leaving from Vancouver BC, and arriving back in Vancouver BC some-two months later. Where and when we go in between that time are yet to be determined.
