Pt. Reyes





Wow, what a difference a day makes. We battled our way to the coast through wind and rain yesterday and landed in Olema, near Pt. Reyes. It’s so quiet and green and beautiful. The RV park has a lot of flooding and there are only about 5 sites occupied.

Spent the day at the Pt. Reyes National Seashore where we had several close encounters with elephant seals on the beach. There were over 500 seals on one beach including120 pups. We came across a group of about a dozen elephant seals near a dock and saw a tiny pup who had been born that day (a sea gull was eating the afterbirth). There was mist and rain on and off, but there was also SUN!! And RAINBOWS! It was a fantastic day after all the storms. And it’s so nice to be way out in the country, even if the cell coverage is dismal.
