Well, we finally did it.
After 2 months of being in Oregon and spending approximately 5 Mondays in a row explaining to Jeff why we didn't do any of the things we planned to do over the weekend, we finally visited the Oregon coast.
And honestly, just like Silver Falls, words cannot describe how beautiful it was.
Having grown up in a suburb of Houston that is a little of 20 minutes from Galveston Island, I'm definitely no stranger to the beach. For Tracy however, growing up in northern Wisconsin, meant that this was his first time to see the beach. And what a beach to see.
Jeff told us that what's mesmerizing about the Oregon coast was how the forest literally meets the water and he was dead on. Driving on the 101, to our left we saw Fur tree forests and to the right was nothing but gorgeous blue water.
Our itinerary included driving to Newport, OR and Depot bay. We visited the Hatfield Marine Science Center, ate at the Original Mo's and definitely played on the beach.
So without further ado, I'll leave you with the snapshots that my Blackberry took of the day, which for a camera phone, are pretty sweet!
