April 6, 2011
We started the day with a breakfast of bagels and fruit. Then we carpooled to Vandenberg Air Force Base. We didn't realize how big and extensive this place is. We got a lot of information about the history and current operations on the bus tour through the base. A lot of the technical stuff was over my head. There is a Amtrak tain route along the coast through the base. That should be a nice ride on a clear day. The base has 42 miles of coast line. We had a very good lunch at the Pacific Club on the base. We got back to camp with just time to set up and prepare for our pot luck dinner. We hope we don't gain too much weight on this trip!
