I've taken a 6 month career break to help me decide what I want to do when I grow up! This BLOG will record my adventures and chart my progress as I cycle the western pacific coast of the US for Room to Read. Find out what I've been up to and how I'm getting on...

Day 40 report pt2

...Ahhh, the waves are coming! Thankfully I managed to get back up the steps without wet feet. Wet feet would come later...

The marine layer was being burned off and by the time I got to my hotel the sun was out. I managed to check in, drop my paniers in the room and go get my ferry. The next sailing went at 1 (this was 12:15) so grab some lunch. Done. The ferry was quite short but nice enough and Coronado is a nice touristy area...but I didnt hang about to find out. I was off on the long long bike path around the corner, under a big road bridge and then out the lagoon. At this point I had a tail wind. This was enjoyable and I found a wee bit of warp drive despite my back. But in the back of my mind I knew this would be a very diff story on the way back! Through Imperial Beach and out the other side towards the border on monument road. This bit is not where you can pitch up with your passport in your pocket and get through. Just a big fence..border patrol pickups...and choppers..tbc
