Day 23 - D.C trip - One day from Home

We woke up around 9:00 a.m. in the morning, I did not cook breakfast today. We all cleaned up in the trailer and walked over to the casino (which name is Spotlight 29 Casino) and having breakfast.

We were kind of getting lost inside the casino, caused there was no direction inside at all. But we found it after we walked around the casino. We found a place and sat down to eat our breakfast. They had a special that day, only cost $2.99 a person, and the coffee is free. So our bill came out to be $10.96., which was not bad at all. Then we went back to our trailer, and drove back to Highway 10 West.

We passed by Cabazon and Tom did get some gas which cost $2.67 gal then we saw two big Dinosaur which we were here about 5 years ago.



This time we took a lot of pictures too. Then we kept on driving on Highway 10 West and saw couples of casino next to the highway, but only see a few trailer in one casino. The other casino did not have any trailer at all.


When we reached the Loma Linda the traffic was bad, it slowed us down to 5 mph, it was about 4.5 miles from highway 215 to San Bernardino. We reached highway 15, it was going uphill and our car speed was only 30 mph. I took some pictures of the mountain road.


About 6 miles later we reach highway 395, the gas in between 395 and 15 (near Victorville ) was only $2.55 a gal. In Cabazon was $2.65 a gal, so if we could drive another 67 miles, don't get gas from this Cabazon gas station.

We changed to Highway 214, it was a hilly road, we have to drive very slow. From highway 214 to 395 then turned to State Highway 58. Techachapi's gas was $2.69 ( don’t' get gas here, just drive another 1 miles you will see couples of gas station which was little bit less, one was Stop n Go $2.55). It was about 6:00 p.m. and we were hungry. Tom said we could stop by the next gas station and cooked or eat-out at the Bakerfield. So we got gas half way in Coalinga which was the most expensive gas we were ever paid in this trip, (it cost $2.78 a gal in Chevron).

At first we were going to cook dinner at WalMart (Bakerfield). After we exited, we saw Costco, so we ate there instead. Then we went back to Highway 58 until we reached Highway 5 to Gilroy. The time was already passed 12:20 a.m. we were still driving and I told Lawrence to sleep at 11:33 p.m.
