The Getaway!

After all the craziness we fled to a nearby lifesaver. Our friend Michael was just north of us in Arcata, CA. Michael treated us to a great time in Humboldt County.

YUM?!

Banana Slugs. Charly thought they were the cutest things.

WWOOFing and weirdness.

I found some pics of our room at the Vineyard.

More WOOFing. We started work at a vineyard/winery the work was fine but honestly I think the owners were... well how can I say it... hmm... perhaps they did a little too much something back in the 60's. The biggest and strangest issue was food and cooking. We took our leave after just 3 days. The accommodations were very generous and the work was enjoyable but the issues with food we decided just weren't worth it. Our friend Michael came to our aid and we headed North to Humboldt County!

Pretty Pathetic

Apparently we've grown tired of photographing our adventure. We were in San Francisco for 2 days and this is pretty much it. We visited the ships in the harbor as you can see. We also met up with our friends from Switzerland again. We crossed paths again. It was two too short meetings but it was nice to see familiar faces. We stayed in the coolest hotel ever. The room was tiny...but what...you sleep in the bed and take a shower. Very modern feeling and if you come less a vehicle it's a steal. It was called the Mosser and we got the cheap rates on Priceline.com. Highly recommended.
