Confirmed Ocean

No matter how many times you tell me we are in California, it never
gets old. You might think that it would be boring to think about, but
I really do enjoy thinking about how we biked here.

We were biking up more mountains today (what a surprise), and we saw
what we thought was the Pacific Ocean in the distance. We weren't
sure, but then some locals walking by told us it was. The chalk in
this picture confirms that that is the ocean in the background. All
our excitment was soon followed by some dancing and hanging out for
about an hour.

It was a nice climb/descent into El Cajon today. It really feels like
we are in Cali. I was biking today to 7-11 today after the ride to get
a Slurpee and it was hot and we passed people speaking Spanish (and
English) and saw some skater kids and saw palm trees and saw signs for
California. And now we're in El Cajon High School, in their gym, and
it's the last day of summer school. Maybe it's just me, but I think I
like it here
