Sunday we took two buses, Monday we took three buses, and today we took four buses! The first was from Kalaloch to Forks, with a side trip into the Hoh Indian Reservation, which was interesting. We also passed Ruby Beach, where we could have gotten off (but didn't) and explored for a few hours until the next bus. The second bus was from Forks to Port Angeles, where we had lunch in a restaurant. The third bus went from Port Angeles to Sequim.
Kalaloch Lodge had a feature in the shower that I've never seen before. It reminded me of showers at marinas, where you put in your quarters (US) or loonies (Canada) for every minute.
We had chosen for our Sequim lodging a place we've previously stayed at: Olympic Railway Inn, with about a dozen converted cabooses. But it's pretty far from the transit center, so we previously downloaded an app to use the Interlink, an on-demand rideshare bus. You have to submit your request online, so we did that and waited about 15 minutes for the van to show up. Its coverage area doesn't extend as far as the Railway Inn, so we walked the last half mile. Les wheeled the suitcase when we were on pavement and carried it when the route was gravel. Like all the buses since Lakewood, this service was free.
It was a long travel day, but very pleasant. The scenery was lovely, especially along the ocean at the start and past Lake Crescent toward the end.
Our caboose is very charming, and the sun has come out for the first time. It's actually been very cold and sometimes drizzly, so that's a nice development.
Tomorrow we'll do the final leg.
