First Day on the Road

We left Vancouver bright and early on the 1st of February. Due to the very bad road conditions over the mountain passes in south Oregon, we opted to veer off towards the Coast just south of Eugene. We had forgotten just how spectacular the scenery is on the Oregon Coast - even more so in the winter when the waves are so much bigger. We encountered all kinds of weather over the 1,100 kms that we drove today - from showers to snow to hail with some sunny periods here and there. It felt like a weather rollercoaster. We stopped for the night in Crescent City, CA. Early to bed and, hopefully, early to rise as we have some distance to cover tomorrow if we want to be in Phoenix in time for Super Bowl.
