So we woke up bright and early in our last minute camp spot on Saturday morning. We immediately went scouting for a closer to the water spot. Within minutes, we landed a prime spot right on the water. We moved our tent (without taking it down) to our new spot and finished setting up. Then, we headed into Port Angeles.
We had a boat on our minds. We hit the thrift shops first so we could find some water shoes, lifejackets and extra plates and cutlery. Done, done and done.
We found a great hardware shop called "Swains" in Port Angeles and purchased an inflatable boat that holds 600lbs and an oar. We wanted to buy two, but at the end of summer, we were SOL.
After stopping at a few more thrift stores and Albertsons to get groceries,...we headed back to the lake. How we ever camped without a water spot and a boat is beyond me. It was glorious.
We all took turns on the boat and had a lovely time. We swam and boated the entire day and at the end of the day, enjoyed a dutch oven stew and smores. A little down the way, another group of campers were being pretty loud. I, of course, went down to talk to them. They ended up inviting us over and served us the most AMAZING vietnamese dishes I have ever eaten.
The first....Bahn Bot Loc.....shrimp and pork dumplings with chili oil and onions
and chicken bbq'd in vietnamese spices. YUM!
Then...full of the amazing food and lively conversation, I took a night boating and swim.
So much fun, albeit a little creepy. Stay tuned for tomorrows post. La Push!
