The Lewis and Clark journals record their jubilation at finally seeing the Pacific: "we have the ocean in view, oh joy".
It is quite remarkable. It is also a little unreal to think we are actually where we are. We have visited all the Lewis/Clark historical places around here (Seaside, OR), so we will move south. The Ocean here seems a lot calmer than I had anticipated .... but then we have been mostly on a bay, or mouth of rivers, etc.
