Vacation: Day 10 (August 12)
We head down Highway 41 for the central coast. We grab some lunch in Kettleman City (skipping In 'n Out, which is insanely crowded), then drive to San Simeon. At the state beach campground, we find Nick and Lolretta, who have brought their very nice trailer out. They offer to let us camp on their site for cheap. Supah.We play with Nick's toy glider for a while. Emma really likes throwing it, though she's not so sure about catching it.
After a while we drive into Cambria for dinner. Lombardi's Pasta Familia. Overpriced and boring; but it's Cambria, so overpriced is a given, and finding somewhere that we would all be happy with would be a challenge. (Kristi flatly refuses to go back to the Brambles, site of our wedding reception dinner. Read into that what you will.) Oh how we miss you, Rosa's Cantina of Cambria.
The evening is punctuated by the loudest, rudest group of teenage campers since, well, since I was a teenager. Kristi goes out at about 1:00 am to tell them, politely, to STFU. It mostly works.
Approximate distance covered: 160 miles.
