As we are staying an extra day here in Moss Landing we all got a little sleep in, which was lovely.
Plus, it was very cold this morning and very nice to snuggle back into the covers.
The morning was spent with school work, washing and bits and bobs.
After a light lunch in the motorhome, we got out our bikes and went to explore Moss Landing.
The sun was shining and the weather a little warmer, a perfect day for riding.
Wes had fun being attached to Pete and his electric bike, whizzing past us. Noah absolutely loved being able to ride his own bike and I enjoyed feeling the wind breezing past (and not having to pull Wes with all his cycling breaks).
We rode out to the beach for a little bit more whale watching which was wonderful. Lots of boats and people enjoying the beautiful sunny, although brisk day.
Next, through the little Moss Landing township, past the vegetable fields and past the farm workers cooking their grill for lunch.
Then, onto the beachside track where Noah loved speeding through the sand.
Noah had so much fun he convinced us to do the lap again, it WAS lots of fun.
Back through the township towards the opposite end of town until the road became too busy and dangerous with the fast cars and no sidewalks, it was time to turn around.
A quick stop at the local veggie market to stock ourselves with fresh fruit and then back to the campsite to relax.
A chilly pre-dinner walk (and ride for Noah) to the beach to spot more Whales. They were everywhere and only about 50 meters off the shore. Absolutely beautiful.
Our second Otter spotting and photo (yesterday was our first but we missed the photo).
And, a lovely dinner at a contemporary Mexican Restaurant across from the campsite.
Moss Landing has been chilly, brisk, cold and at times wonderfully sunny. However, seeing the beautiful Whales right from the beach, spotting Otters, riding our bikes, viewing Seals, eating delicious meals and just enjoying our time as a family has made the stop completely worthwhile.
If only it was a little warmer…
