The day was warm with brilliant blue skies. But as we headed towards Homer, a sea fog rolled in making it cold and dreary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We stopped at a gas station to fill up, and that dreaded hose started leaking again. In fact it poured all over the forecourt. I ran in the tell them and a lady came out with some stuff which she scattered over the spill. Then they helped us push Rodger off the forecourt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The leak is not the original problem, that is fixed now. There is a breather hose which now seems to leak, so Mike folded it over with zip ties to stop it leaking. We then took it to a garage who confirmed this fix should be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We drove out to the Homer spit which has charming seaside huts along it. We had done lunch at a seaside restaurant. We shared some clam chowder and some deep fried halibut and chips. It was yummy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sea fog was making it really cold, but it was cool how the snow covered mountains poked above the fog. We booked into a beachfront camp for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wind died down and the fog cleared and it was stunning evening. We went out at 8.30 pm for tacos. I had halibut tacos and Mike had rockfish. Both were yummy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We didn\u2019t settle down until after midnight as it was such a nice evening watching the sun set.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We reluctantly left our lovely lakeside camp and headed on to Homer.
