The finale to this saga!

We drove up from the rainy California up to Newport, Oregon.

My parents love this city. I think they could buy a condo here and let me borrow it 😉

Our first stop in Newport was the Yaquina Bay Lighthouse.

My mom photographed the steps leading up the lighthouse tower. I need this photo printed and hung on my wall.

The bay below was an adventure in and of itself. The ocean was CHILLY.

Lmao. Silly kids.

Some other beach finds:

Plus this sea lion keeping an eye on us 🙂

And the fuzziest caterpillar that ever lived.

We took a lunch break at Nana’s Irish Pub (my parents’ favorite restaurant).

10/10 recommend.

Then a little browsing among the wharf:

Unfortunately, Taylor’s PTO ran out, so our little family headed out for home. But here are some final pictures for memory’s sake 🙂

Thanks for organizing this trip, Mom & Dad! 🙂
