Day 187 - 6th December, San Simeon - Morro Bay - Los Osos, 32.34 miles

Po tom co prejdeme cez mestecko Cambria a zdolame mensi kopec, dostavame sa do vyprahlej, skoro puste, čo sú pastviný rancerii, ktore sa tiahnu od obzoru po obzor. Nastastie ficime s dobrym vetrom a mierne z kopca, takze tym suchoparom prechadzame pomerne rychlo. Pred dalsim mesteckom Cayucos odbocujeme k oceanu a v malej zatocinke si davame obed, spolu s belusami. Na obzore sa z vody vypina obrovitanska skala a fabrika na vyrobu vody v Morro Bay. Prejdeme cez Morro Bay, cez park, kde sa na stromoch uz zhromazdili supy na nocovisko. Ani sme nevedeli, ze takto nocuju pohromade. My sme prenocovali v Los Osos u Georga a Pat, dalsich warmshoweristoch. Skveli ludkovia. George bol skautsky veduci.

After we passed through small town named Cambia, the road led us away from the coast, between hills covered with dry grass. All around us was land changed to the pastures. It was very hot here but luckily we got good tailwind. And because it was small downhill, very soon we came back to the ocean shore and left that sad piece of land behind us. In front of Cayucos was nice view on entire Morro Bay, with two dominant - huge monolithic rock in the shape of pyramid standing in the water and some ugly  factory (probably for making the drinking water). In Morro Bay we saw for the first time huge roosting site with turkey vultures. In the late evening our last miles led us to Los Osos, where we stayed with George and Pat, two amazing people, warmshowers hosts of course. Pat prepared an amazing dinner and we had interesting conversation. George told us about eucalypts and why they were introduced to this region of USA (because after they destroyed local forests, people were looking for some trees able to grow in this conditions, so they chose eucalypt, now they are spreading everywhere and are the most often reason of the wild fires), we also found out that here in this region they have big problem with wild hogs, also non native. Actually we saw one on the way here.
