Day 43, 9/26/08

We tried oatmeal again today for breakfast. Oatmeal just doesn't cut it. On the days that we've oatmeal for breakfast, we're almost hungry again before we've left our campsite. We're even eating two packets each plus a banana. Today we rode from San Clemente through Camp Pendleton then through Oceanside, Carlsbad, and stopping for lunch in Encinitas. The fish tacos and taquitos we ate at a Mexican restaurant there was among the best food we have had on the tour. And cheap, too - $5/person.


After lunch, we rode through Cardiff by the Sea, Solana Beach, Del Mar, La Jolla, and finally reaching our campground near Mission Beach. The campground, Campland on the Bay, was pretty interesting. It's a private campground which is more like a small city. It's like an amusement park version of a campground. It had a lot of RV campers, some tent campers and people were packed in like sardines and at $50/night for our tent site, was the most expensive place we have camped at. But at least the amenities were nice. The swimming pools and jacuzzis were resort quality. We enjoyed a nice soak and swim before dinner.

For our last dinner, we had one of our favorites - Tasty Bite & cheddar broccoli rice combo. Once again we had some inconsiderate neighbors who carried on loud, drunken conversations late into the night until around 4-5 am even after security told them to cut it out. Sam did not get much sleep. Once again, I slept fine in my coma-like state.
