Olympic National Park

We found our way to the Olympic Peninsula, and the National Park. The first stop was the Visitor Center and found out the places to see and things to do. We made it to Mora Beach campground. We pulled in after dark we tried to get our rig in a site but after pulling the air horn off with a tree branch we decided to park in the regular daily parking area.

In the morning I took a walk around and could see that we were trying to park a RV in a tent site, not a good fit.

We fixed the air horns and headed to the beach. Realto Beach is like nothing we have ever seen before. The Pacific Ocean is ........ (I don't have words to describe its power). There were the huge down trees strewn across the beach, Joe measured one at 190 feet. The question is how did they get there? And there is no sand but these small round stones. All my senses were alive, the smell of the ocean, the beauty I could see, the cool damp air on my skin, the loud crashing waves, well I couldn't taste anything but I didn't want sea water in my mouth either.

This is only the begining of the Park.
