We were up really early again, hoping to get to Jacumba a distance of 88.5 kms.  We said our goodbyes to Bill.

We took Bill\’s advice and joined the Interstate 8, it was a very quiet road, with a clean shoulder.

Unfortunately, by 11:00 I didn’t have the legs and we were only in Ocotillo (62.5) – 26 ks to go up a 1,000 metre climb.

I thought I might feel better after some lunch. Was it better to do the big climb today or have a good nights sleep and head towards Pine Valley tomorrow?

Of course wherever there are wind turbines there are protest signs.

Ralf said I wasn’t looking too good, I wasn’t feeling great, so we decided to find the motel and stay the night. It was supposed to have wi-fi, but no such luck. There is a bar with wi-fi and the café where we had lunch has wi-fi.

We went to the bar and had a pitcher of beer and I updated the blog – hope it read o.k!
