Costa Esmeralda (Gulf Coast)



The smell of the ocean, palm trees, haaaaaa... didn't take long for Cal to park his bike and jump in! what an amazing feeling the ocean can be after a long hot mountain drive. Driving along the coast was a good feeling, passing by a sign, HAMBURGUESA, english spoken, mmm I stopped, "hey Cal... hungry!" What a question... Cal is always hungry, so we turned around and went for the burgers, chatted with the restaurant owner that came from new York, telling him what we were up too. He invited us to camp next to his restaurant if we wanted too. But instead we decided on driving a little more to find a spot on the beach, so off we go...
20kms later, stuck in traffic at a toll bridge, Cal says, " screw this traffic, lets go back and camp there, rest " ya sounds good so we turned around and basecamp at the restaurant and had our first real Italian pizza, relaxed in hammocks with a cold beer and listen to some of his life stories.
