Ahhhh, what a beatiful feeling to wake up in a bed and eat fresh bluebery muffins for breakfast.   Ross and Debby were so kind to us and it was such a blessings to be invited into their home.  They gave us a whole bunch of maps and directions out of the city and informed us as to avoid all those tricky Freeways that don’t allow bikers.  Today we zoomed like nothing else….must have been the pizza      The wind blew on our backs and our legs began to feel like hardened jello, not jellowy jello.  In other words, the muscles in our legs were actually responsive and we could motor along the roads.   In order to make good time we also took a lot shorter and fewer breaks.  It all payed off as we rolled into Lompoc at 3:00 in the afternoon!!!!!    This was quite the acomplishment seeing as we usually don’t complete our 100 plus km and find a campsite until 7or 8…..or 9pm.     A new adventure awaited us in Lompoc…..ALBERTSONS.  A brand new grocery store for us, never had we set foot in such a wonderfull place since Fred Meyers in Oregon.    For the first time, all those dohnuts, cookies and cinamon buns that we had drooled over and WALKED BY IN every other store were finally cheap.   Yahoo!!! We bought eight loaded cinamon buns for $2.99.  Oh Joy!!   Again, we pretty much filled up a cart and then sat outside Albertsons and ate and ate and ate.  oooohhh, we also bought yogurt, yummmy!!  While we ate, we made phone calls home.  Our poor mothers, they are always so happy to hear from us cuz we do not call home on a regular basis like good little youngsters probably should.  Well, byt he time we had actually eated enough food to fill our bottomless stomachs, called home and decided where to camp, we had been “loitering” outside of Albertsons with our shopping cart ( now half empty) for 3 hours!!   We are quite the bunch of funny people and so many passer-byers look and laugh….actually, stare and laugh. 

     After talking to a bunch of people we found an awesome RV Park 5 minutes from town.   Slugishly we rolled in, set up the tents and made supper.   It was a quiet campsite and we fell asleep with the soothing thought of a day off in the morning.
