July 10 - mileage: 47,762 km (distance for the day = 163 km)

Today was a good day. The weather was great. It wasn't too hot either. Dad, Reg and Kyle went into Tillamook to find a new batter for dad's bike, no luck. Dad had to do some work on his bike, so we left late. The riding was great. Except Reg had a major allergy attack, so that sucked. I got to see the ocean. I have decided I really love the ocean. We wanted to stay in Lincoln City but there was just nowhere to camp, or get a hotel. So we went on to Newport. We got a room there. It's going to be a cozy night. There are six of us all in one room. That's all right though, we all like each other.
