We had so much rain on Easter Sunday (not the drizzle kind of rain Utah gets, but Oregon rain that drenched everything), when Monday rolled around and we saw a hint of sunshine we bolted for the coast.It was sunny all day with temperatures in the 50's (still a little cold to be playing in the ocean). The kids really enjoyed the tide pools, playing in the sand, and collecting seashells and smooth rocks.
Jake playing in the tide pools. The tide came in quickly and soon everything was covered in water (including Jacob).
After playing at Seal Rock, we visited the Marine Science Center, had lunch at a 50's diner, and then headed up to Devil's punch bowl and Depoe Bay for some shopping and whale watching (although we didn't see any whales). We also grabbed some famous Mo's clam chowder on our way home to bring back to Grandma Ballard (of course we had to buy some for us too- delicious).
