Woke at 3am and 5:30am again this morning.  Vick managed to sleep through to nearly 7am.  The weather in Crescent City reflected our view of the city itself - dull and overcast.  The mist was still hanging around.

We had a pretty good night’s sleep and we woke up to the sound of the Pacific Ocean crashing on the rocks below our room. Although noisy it’s such a peaceful sound!

A better night’s sleep was had by all - we are slowly dealing with the jet lag. This morning we grabbed an early breakfast and then were on the road by 6:20am, missing most of the rush hour traffic, headed for the border and then on to Seattle.
