Newport to Lincoln City and Back

Today was rainy and cold.  We dressed really warm and headed out determined not to let the weather keep us from enjoying the coastline from Newport to Lincoln City and back.  Come along and enjoy the Oregon coastline as we saw it today… There were the large waves…

and

those who were taking advantage of them.  And there

was the coastguard who had no choice but to be out on a day like today.  Then there was the wildlife who live here no matter what the weather is like…

This gray whale is making its way South looking for food, while

this gull is just hanging out in the cold wind and rain.

If the angry waves are not your style…you could have enjoyed the

calm coves or

quite harbors.  You could have walked the streets

and

shopped for salt water taffy in almost any flavor your can imagine.  You could

taken a tour of a lighthouse or

seen a lighthouse in operation.  You could have

seen the D River which is

the world’s shortest river or seen

Depot Bay which claims to be

the world’s smallest harbor.  And lastly, you could have enjoyed

the sea lions who were just hanging out!

What ever your pleasure, you could have enjoyed it today from Newport to Lincoln City and back.
