We had a great time. We went to Gleneden beach, Or. It is beautiful, but cold. The temp didn't get any higher than 65 f. That part was great, however, the wind coming off the coast was a little chilly. We actually wore sweaters most of the time. We arrive Sunday night and Monday morning I broke my camera so sorry, I do not have many pic's. We did go for a drive on Monday and stopped at Boiler Bay. While we were there we watched a whale for about an hour! It was great. We would see the spout and then he would some up out of the water. One time we saw most of him. Other times we just saw his back. It was really fun.
We also went to the sea lion caves and watched sea lions for a while. It is fun to sit and just watch the ocean break against the waves. We sat and watched that for hours at a time as well.
We also saw some tide pools. That was fun. We had to hike all over the lava rock to get to the pools, then se saw all kinds of cool stuff. I wish I had a pic of them. It is amaizing that some of the stuff that looks like rock is really a living thing.
We flew kites on the beach and played in the waves. We went and saw 4 light houses. It was cool to see them. We hiked to the top of one. It wass 90 feet straight up in a cirlce. and it got smaller as we got to the top. It was fun.
We went to the Tillomook Cheese factory and saw how they make cheese. It was a week packed with fun and adventure. If I could do it again, I might spend more time at the condo and on the beach. But I am glad we saw all that we did.
