Day 33 (7/16) - Eureka, Redwoods Natl and State Park

We were able to sleep in this morning for a nice change. We eventually had a good breakfast before hanging around the hotel and then going to the hotel pool and swimming for a while. After that we drove for an hour before arriving at Redwoods National and State Park. We did a hike and the trees were huge. For Star Wars fans, they filmed the Endor scenes in Return of the Jedi in the same forest. On the way out of the park we saw a herd of elk in a field. They were ginormous. We drove back and stopped at a market for dinner, before going back and eating in our room. After that we swam some more before finally going to bed.
