I am not sure what I expected to see in Eureka but the unusual buildings took me by surprise.
Quirky Architecture
Quirky architecture, odd road bridges and wildlife made the journey a memorable one.
The link below opens up an image of one of the houses that I added special effects to when I posted it to social media.
The coastal road was beautiful & we wended our way along. Stopping where the fancy took us for food and sight seeing.
The weather was wonderful & it was fun to explore all the odd little towns along the route.
Behind the Bike Shop
We stopped at one RV park wedged between a garage & a Harley Davidson show room. No room in the van! I think the excess baggage payments might have been a bit steep. So hubby had to make do with a pair of socks & a book about Route 66 instead!
Harleys are popular & I can understand the attraction in the USA as they seem built for cruising along. Not quite so sure if this is as true of the UK roads. Even if you’re not a biker they are quite beautiful machines.
The RV park was surprisingly quiet but we were only there overnight before setting off again.
Chasing the milk tanker
From Portland we headed for the coast and set a course for San Francisco via Highway 101 the Pacific Scenic Highway.
By now my daughter was really on board with driving the wagon through small towns & navigating twisty roads.
I was really proud of how she had risen to the challenge of driving something more than twice the size of her own car although I still was duty driver for the cities.
Double yellows so No overtaking here but later her confidence had grown so much that she caught up & overtook later when we got a passing lane.
