Greg & Camille Go Bike

Camille cooked a delicious breakfast (egg omelette) and later lunch. She finished up some work while Greg had computer time, too. We checked out Clarity Coffee for a couple of drinks, snacks, and games of battleship & chess. After overhearing the barista say he was from La Plata, we learned we were saying the town name wrong (PLAY-ta, not PLAH-ta).

The night before, a man handing out flyers for a local campaign had told Camille that there was a boardwalk in town not to be missed. Just a short walk away, it was sunny, calm, and hot completely unlike the forecast. The scenery was nice with a shady pass through some woods followed by river views with crashing waves. We discovered the reason for the complaint we'd read on a Google review; the board walk truly wasn't functional, just barely recreational. There was no seating or allowed activities, and it couldn't serve as a conneting pathway (it's just an out and back). Nonetheless, we were still glad we went.

After, we walked to the Dollar General Market for a few more snacks (ice cream!) and to pick up a puzzle. Back at the hotel, we made quick work of the puzzle while finishing Howl's Moving Castle. We had leftovers for dinner while journaling and route planning to round out the evening.
