Spring Vacation in Pacific City

 My parents came for a visit and we decided to take them to Pacific City.  The end of May in Oregon, especially the Oregon Coast, is a very risky as far as the weather goes.  Very good chance of rain and definitely cold.  I warned my parents that this is not a warm beach by any stretch of the imagination and they should bring a coat.  My mom would need a coat in the middle of summer. 

We lucked out and the first day was sunny.  Second day only scattered showers.  My dad kept waiting that day for the sun to reappear....he doesn't know about how excited we are for "sun breaks"!  We had a great time anyway.


 At Cape Kiwanda there is this huge and hill.  It is so much fun to go to the top and run down - the running down part is fun, NOT the going up.  On dry days you can even sled down the sand.

 There are tide pools with all kinds of creatures.

Beautiful scenery.


 Hot tubbing and VERY tired kids.

Mom and Dad said it was so much fun there. They said we all need to go. I'm game!
