Newport

The week before the 4th of July, we took a mini-vacation to Newport, Oregon. We had two really nice days while we were there.

We went to Florence, Oregon and found this cool restaurant. Benny was excited that he got to eat his lunch in a car.

Just north of Florence, OR is the Sea Lion Caves. Benny wasn't very impressed. He didn't like the noise, but enjoyed the elevator ride both down and up.

Benny loved the beach. He had fun looking for shells and flying a kite with Daddy.

A Day at Seaside, OR

Last week we took a day and went to Seaside, Oregon. We had a good time. Benny had fun riding this train. Benny liked the carousel until it started to move and then he had a tight grip on Daddy's coat.

Benny was excited about walking on the sand and seeing the ocean. He even found some shells (actually they were pieces of sanddollars). It sure was windy at the beach.
