Last Vacation Before Kids

Janel and I took a 3-day weekend out to the coast for a little break before our daughter arrives. We stayed in a little hotel in Depoe Bay (Inn at the Arch Rock) which was okay. Friday we drove down to the coast and took it easy ... reading, napping, etc. The weather was so-so.

Saturday morning we drove down to Newport and visited the aquarium which we both enjoyed. Definitely a good place to bring the kids in a few years.

Here is a photo of a puffin getting ready to take off with his mouth full.

For lunch we ate at "Local Ocean Seafoods". Highly Recommended.

Janel and the bridge in Newport. She is getting pretty big ...


That afternoon the clouds came in so we took it easy. I took advantage of the soft light to take some flower photos.

And a flower shot from outside our hotel room.
