View from Ecola State Park
We took a much needed mini vacation this past weekend to the Oregon coast. It was very spontanious and unexpected, but so worth it! We decided to go back to a favorite area of ours, the Seaside/Cannon Beach area (which Jeremy just posted about our last trip there and the fun we had finding Goonies stuff!). We left on friday night and spent until sunday afternoon playing in the sand, eating, and shopping. We stayed in a cute little hotel that kinda had a cabin feel to it. It had two bedrooms and a kitchen, which was very nice with the kids around. The weather was amazing and everything was beautiful! We saw some wildlife, including a whale (it's back and spout of water) and a bald eagle. We also saw some starfish and lots of birds. It was a great getaway that we all enjoyed so much! I tried to narrow down the pictures to only a few, but I liked so many of them, I stopped counting. Sorry there's so many!
These pictures are all at Seaside. It was a beautiful day!
Here we are at the famous Haystack at Cannon Beach. The tide was down so we were able to do some exploring in the rocks and find creatures!
This is the view from a lookout at Ecola State Park, just down from and overlooking Cannon Beach.
This is back in Seaside on a carousel we rode in one of their little shopping centers.
Seaside sunset...gorgeous.
These pictures are so great!! They will look even more awesome when you scrap them! =)
ReplyDeleteBoyd just finished watching Goonies, so he thought the pics from the movie was so cool! =)
Oh it looks like you guys had the best time! I love the coast. Seeing your pictures makes me want to go on a spontaneous trip too! So, I miss you tons...just thought you should know :)
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I wish that we had ocean that we could spontaneously take a trip to. We have to seek out some cool mountain spots or something. It looks like you had fun and I know what you mean about a much needed vacation!
