Road Trip - Day Six
Tuesday, May 15, 2007
Woke up bright and early and walked across Highway 101 trying to find a signal so I could do my radio bit. Today we did a “where in the world is Skids?” contest. It was fun, but I wasn’t ready so my clues kinda sucked. Next time should be better.
After that, I went to the Trees of Mystery. It was very cool and absolutely impossible to photograph. These trees were huge! At the end, there was a Tall Tale section where they talked a little bit about Paul Bunyon. It made me want to read more about the American West Mythos. I haven’t read them in a while and there might be some good stuff in there for stories and such.
Left there and hit Ocean World in Crescent City. It was a nice, small aquarium with lots of sharks and a few sea lions and some bat rays. I got to pet the sharks (5 foot leopard sharks). By the way, the picture up top is from there.
After that, it was pretty much driving until I got to a hotel. Okay, that’s not exactly true. there was a stop or two for pictures and then gas stops and a nice little diner which had perfect diner food (watery when it should be thick and thick when it should have been thinner).
