Yeah...the sun shone all day!!!! And it was beautiful, I had a whole new attitude today.
We drove down the 101 again and stopped at some new places. We walked a couple of beaches, one was all round rock and very hard to walk on, but there were tide pools I wanted to check out. The tide was coming in, so couldn't stay long. I did get lots of excersise as the one trail to the beach was almost a mile and there must have been a hundred steps going down, and then you have to go back up. That was the killer...I was ready to sit when I got back to the truck. We did see a couple of different lighthouses along the way
These look like pelicans, but not for sure
This little guy was in a tide pool
There were 3 of these Harbour Seals swimming around
Yaquina Head lighthouse...stands 162 feet above sea level. The 93 foot high tower is the tallest on the OR coast. It was first illuminated in 1873
Heceta Head lighthouse sits 205 ft above the ocean. It was first illuminated in 1894, today it's automated becon is rated as the strongest light on the OR coast and can be seen 21 miles from land
This is a jelly fish, we saw lots of them on the beach yesterday. I think they are interesting.
