The world has been righted. I got my bike from FedEx. I got a replacement camera. I got my bike together and we made the 3:00pm ferry to Bremberton. We did about 38 miles, making it down to Shelton, Wa. We're going to do about 60 miles tomorrow to Raymond, and then 50+ to Astoria.
We averaged about 14.7 mph with the hills which was awesome. I did have a thought that Kansas might not be so bad when I was on the first hill. The shoulders were great in some places and super sketchy in other. We had to ride on the side of a small highway for a couple miles and then it chilled out. There was only one super shady section where the should was about two feet wide.
We met some characters already. Jake and I have a good vibe about the people we're going to meet along the way. We met Kermit this morning at the ferry terminal. He was pedaling a rickshaw and was interested in our bike. There was a Jesus freak in shady van at the Safeway in Shelton and the motel clerk was very chatty. Should be a good time.
Alright, time for bed.

So you're in Kansas, well check out the Milky Way up in the night sky if you can. Nice that your fortunes have been reversed.
I got sea-sick today on my first scuba dive of the summer. Good times, but it was worth it. Oh yea I'm in Thailand. Pretty sweet.
