Our first stop: the Columbian Cafe in Astoria for some delicious toast (and other food). This is Owen's "vacation smile". Somehow, he wouldn't smile unless I told him to "vacation smile".
Next stop: Maritime Museum.
The boys had a great time running around and looking at boats.
All the boys listening to stories of the sea.
Next, the beach. Both boys wanted to start playing about five feet into the sand. I don't think they even noticed the ocean. Easier clean-up. Still, lots of fun.
Sand Angel.
Henry was more interested in putting sand in Owen's coat than a picture.
We went to Ecola State park for a hike. As soon as we stepped out the car, the wind suggested otherwise. As Owen stated, "today is not a very good day for a hike". So, we took a few pictures, and hopped back in the car.
To warm up, we went to Cannon Beach for hot cocoa.
Owen used a straw.
Henry gulped his down. (WARNING NEXT PICTURE IS GROSS!)
To fast in the mouth, out the nose it came!
Next some more pictures.
Back to the beach.
Bath time. Yes, with sunglasses
Puddle splashing! They got more wet in this puddle than the ocean!
They boys watched this seagull for about 20 minutes. They would laugh when he opened his mouth, and squawk at in when he would squawk. It was very cute (and cold) to watch.
We had a great time. The last two hours were a little rough... tired kids and tired parents. But we all had a great time. Can't wait til the next one!
