Back tracked to Shelton. Then continued cycling up the Olympia Peninsula, through wooded countryside. The last 10 miles should have been on the old highway, but we missed the turning and went on the main road. The main road was paid for by Bill Gates, as one of his many houses is on the old highway, and he did not like the traffic passing close by! It was then on to Bremmerton for the ferry across to Seattle. Home to Starbucks, a great market, and a city which is alive with people.
So that is it!
Statistics to follow, but I think (I need to find a calculator to count), that I have cycled over 4,500 miles and travelled through eleven states. Am spending the night in the hostel near the ferry and market, before the task of packing up bike etc for the flight home on Thursday.
Sarah -- Congrats on the completion of your trans-continental trek -- that's fantastic! And thanks for letting us know of your progress along the way. Again, it was a pleasure to meet you as you passed through Eastern Oregon. -- "Halfway Bill"
