We managed another successful 3 night stay out at Pacific City, Back in May. We rolled up after work and our favorite pitch was available to us, this was a good start!

As we headed out after a full day of work and the wife was just back from her annual trip back to England, the evening was very low key!  We mostly talked about the plan for the weekend!

We were woken up by beautiful sunshine and the roar of the ocean. We had our morning coffee and breakfast while watching Tottenham draw against Southampton (yes I am London lad and I can’t miss a game!) – we were ready to put our plan in to place, a walk to the pub.

From our site it was half a mile to the beach, then a lovely walk south into the sun and paragliders!  We stopped at the top of the dune to enjoy the colorful display, and the good spirited humor of watching some beginners!  Before long, the calling of Pelican brewery drove us down the dune and into its embrace.

The walk was much shorter then I expected, 2.1miles from the Airstream to the pub.  With a 6-pack in hand we headed back to watch the fun at the top of the dune.

All in all, it was about a 3 hour/2 beer walk, very much a lot of fun!

Once we got back to the airstream we sat out in the sun and caught up with family over skype.  The wife wanted to head back to the beach to get the surfers at high tide/sunset,  this time she drove us!  I needed to get the growlers filled anyhow!

Luka and I found an abandoned fire, so we grab some drift wood and kept warm with the Doryman ale while the wife snapped away.

The only downside of this trip was our departure.  As we pulled away, I had left the front right stabilizer deployed… While it got nicely mangled, I managed to detatch it form the AS.  Something to fix when I get home…

Lessons learnt:

Make sure all the stabilizers are up before you pull away…

Beer tastes better at the source!

Things we bought:

Firewood!
