Sept 23rd
Since we had a relatively short driving day we took our time
over breakfast, walking the dogs , etc., but by 9:30 we were able to get
everything stowed and ready for the road.
Pulling out of Flying Flags we got on Hwy 101 south and
cruised on down out of the hills to the ocean at Gaviota Beach. From Gaviota
Hwy 101 runs along the Pacific through Santa Barbara, Carpinteria and on to
Ventura/Oxnard where 101 moves inland through Camarillo and over the coast
hills into Thousand Oaks and on into the San Fernando Valley. From there we
picked up CA-134, the Glendale/Pasadena Fwy and then on to I-210 E. Just past
Glendora we got on CA-57 S and onto I-10 E for a couple of miles getting off
the freeway at exit 44, Fairplex Ave.

From our exit it was only a couple of miles up into the
hills to Bonelli Regional Park and the Eastshore RV Park (www.eastshorervpark.com).
Since we were a day early we got a site for one night and set up the coach,
walked the dogs and kicked back after the drive which turned out to be a little
more stressful than expected due to the volumes of traffic, all the fwy
construction and the speed everybody drives.

After dinner we took the kids for a walk around the section
of park we’re in. It’s a really nice facility with grass everywhere and paved
pads. The pool is right next to our site and the section we’re in is perched
high above the Puddingstone Reservoir with great vistas in several directions.
Distance traveled today, 165 miles. Total for the trip so far,
1,411 miles.
Only a couple of photos today. To see them, go to:
