After five days of meals like this on the MV
David B,
it was quite a let-down to return to the cold world of road food.
We discovered for some reason most eateries were
closed for lunch on Mondays in Port Townsend.
We finally gave in and had hot dogs with everything and drag-it-through-the-garden
at a little outdoor diner near the waterfront.
Then there were two days of Stuff from the Cooler
in the Subaru such as: Tillamook yogurt, (very good) cheese sticks, Fiber One
bars, apples; plus my favorite--Cherry pull-and-peel Twizzlers and DH’s preference, corn nuts.
So after we had played find Waldo the Sculpin
---
--got up close and personal with the octopus
(those eyes!), watched them feed the seals and played with the crabs and sea
anemones at the Seaside Aquarium; we washed our hands and asked the lady at the
gift shop to recommend a good place to eat.
She sent us two blocks down the street to
Norma’s.
I had the combo platter: battered and fried salmon, cod and halibut
with slaw and fries dipped in malt vinegar.
The only thing that could make the meal better was—
Mocha mud pie.
I wanted to lick the plate.
