May 13 – we made an omelet and some ham for b’fast this morning. Drove up the coast a little to Avila Beach – a nice little town that is a lot more laid back than Pismo Beach. We have spent time there with my sister Diane and her husband Davin at the Avila Beach Resort, a timeshare that we traded into. The town has grown a little in the years since then and it is still nice. When we stayed at the resort we ate a couple of dinners at the restaurant at the end of the pier called Olde Port Inn – we loved it but it has been more than 5 years so we don’t know if it is still the same.
At Avila Beach there were a bunch of ’32 Ford hotrods – probably a local club’s cruise I would guess it is something like a GMC rally. I will be looking for cruise nights and car shows in the Tucson area to take our coach to – time to get into sell mode and get some new owners hooked on these things.
After our large and late breakfast we figured we’d have a late lunch and no dinner. When we finally got hungry again in the late afternoon we headed out to see what we could find. There are some reviews of the Pismo Beach Fish and Chips place just down the street from our camp site so we gave it a try. Best fish and chips I’ve had since I was a little kid. Funny thing is that the place was founded by a Dutch woman back in 1959 and the place I remember as a kid was in a building that was modeled on a Dutch windmill – maybe there is something about being Dutch and making good fish and chips?
Here are today’s photos:
