Coast Trip

On this Wednesday trip, we went to the coast.  We started out in Newport at the Oregon State University Marine Science Center.  We learned a lot about what OSU is doing to help marine life and track the underwater earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.  They also have an exhibit where you can touch some of the sea life and learn about the creatures.

Then we headed up the coast and drove across the Newport Bridge.

And headed up to Depoe Bay.  Where we sat and ate caramel corn and fed some birds.

Our next stop was Beverly Beach, where we played in the water.  Jesse lost one of his water shoes and I had to go in and get it cause he didn't want to get to far into the cold water.  

One of the other stops we made was for lunch at Pronto Pups.  Jesse says they have the best corn dogs around.  They are even better than the ones at the fair.  And they claim to be the original.  

When we were done playing at the beach, we headed home and decided to stop at the casino.  Jesse did well he won, I was not so lucky.  But dinner was devine.  We had all you can eat crab at the buffet.
