Wasn't really a disappointment at all (don't know how it got it's name) but we welcomed it in the early afternoon after 38 miles of riding. We stopped at a grocery store and got lined up to make bean burritos with chili flavoring for dinner. We walked almost a mile to get to the Lewis and Clark Interpretive Center and then walked another 3/4 mile to the Cape Disappointment Lighthouse. We then walked back to our campsite and walked a mile the other direction to get a view of the North Head Lighthouse. This is a treacherous area where many boats have shipwrecked through the years as they dealt with the currents caused by the Columbia River meeting the Pacific Ocean. It is also the final destination of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Met Joey and Megan from Port Angeles who are on a northbound journey from San Francisco. They arrived early evening after crossing the Astoria Bridge which they said was horrible. Lots of traffic and faced a head wind.
