Continuing our Oregon coastal route to Portland, we made our next stop in Lincoln City. It was another great find along the Oregon coast!
 |
| A perfect camping spot on the banks of the Siletz River at Coyote Rock RV (On a side note...we found this site through the Passport America program. This is a MUST have for the full-time RVer. We snagged this great spot, with full hook-ups, free wifi, cable, laundry for only $16 a night! And they didn't charge us extra for being a party of more than 2. The camp owner is very nice, as is his staff.) |
 |
| The backside of our campsite...the fishing dock and boat launch :) |
-Exploring our new area-
We saw this sign a lot along the coast!
And we did this a lot, too :)
This is the way to our favorite Lincoln City beach.
 |
The beach is at the end of this street, on the left.
|
 |
| Fish faces :) |
We loved this beach for many reasons:
 |
Low tide
|
 |
| It has been very windy every time we went to any beach in Oregon...so we bought a kite. What is the best way to make the wind stop? Buy a kite :) Our kite only made three very short trips up before the wind stopped completely. |
 |
| Sneaker Waves |
 |
| Pure joy :) |
There is driftwood everywhere...perfect for climbing and exploring!
 |
| Building a hideout |
 |
| Love this... |
 |
| Making memories... |
Sightseeing around Lincoln City and Depoe Bay:
 |
| Lincoln City boasts they have the World's Shortest River |
And here it is!
 |
| 125 feet long: "D" River |
 |
| Meanwhile, Depoe Bay boasts they have the World's Smallest Harbor |
We checked out the "Surfing Museum" in Lincoln City.
The kids are very interested in surfing since watching
Soul Surfer.
 |
| Faux surfing....until we make it to Hawaii :) |
 |
| A little known fact about Jon and I: We were the models for the Endless Summer movie poster :) |
 |
| Best.Carmel Corn.Evah..... on the boardwalk in Depoe Bay, OR |
We stopped in the Whale Center in Depoe Bay....
 |
| A killer whale |
 |
| The jaw bone of a gray whale---it's bigger than Jolie :) |
 |
| Whale watching! But, no whales to be found today :( We did find a harbor seal playing in the harbor. |
And we did a little geocaching....
 |
| This is why we geocache----look at this gorgeous spot we found! We would've missed it! The little green thing in the bottom right corner is our first travel bug :) We found it in a cache in Napa, CA. We put him in his new home in OR. We are tracking his journey---he has already been picked up and moved to WA. It's fun to watch its journey. |
We're heading to Portland via Tillamook next!
Cool campsite!
