Canon Beach: Cheryl meets the Pacific

After a nice time in Seattle, we woke up and headed out to the Oregon Coast. This was Cheryl’s first time seeing the Pacific Ocean.

The tide was just coming in, but we were still able to scramble around on the rocks and find some fun little creatures. Magnus liked the starfish and kept pointing at its “eye.” We also found a shrimp that seems a lot bigger when you notice there is a tiny little fly just above it on my fingers. There were also lots of hermit crabs.

At the beach and great weather; that’s a good combo.

Next, we stopped at Ecola Point to see the nice view.

We had to stop at Bruce’s Candy in Canon Beach for the delicious taffy.

The day ended with a walk to Haystack Rock on Canon Beach. Magnus fell asleep on Ruth’s shoulders.
