This morning I said good bye to Leandro, a very special
person who I met here at the San Diego Point Loma Hostel. Leandro is from Brazil
and is traveling around the USA . I will miss my conversations with him and
thank him for making the start of my journey a pleasant and enlightening
one. Good luck Leandron on the rest of
your travels.
Tonight will be the first official meeting of the Adventure
Cycling Southern Tier bike ride. Not
wanting to waste the day, Tom, Chris, Patrick and Joe decided to take a short
ride to the beaches of San Diego . Our short ride was almost 30 miles long and
what a great ride it turned out to be.
The clear blue skies and pleasant ocean breeze made taking in the
marvelous views of the ocean especially pleasant. We stopped and had lunch at The Board and
Brew sandwich shop and enjoyed a great sandwich. The place was popular and the food good. After lunch, we continued north along the
Ocean for several more miles before turning around to return to the hostel, enjoying the ocean views
from a new perspective.
At seven this evening the 13 people who will become family for
the next 65 days meet for the usual Adventuring Cycling orientation meeting,
where the leader, Ken Exum discussed all the rules and requirements, and talked
about what we could expect along our journey.
Great start to your journey and blog. The map showed up but I could not view any pictures...that I am sure you took.
