Trip to Cali...

Well we decided at the last minute to take the family to San Francisco and go to Six Flags, since they had been begging for a trip to Disneyland. Needless to say we did not want to endure a 14 hour drive with the kids, so we settled on the 8 hours drive each way instead. We had a great time, and then were home in time for Labor day weekend and a great Oregon Duck Game.

Some pictures of us at Six Flags....




We took a tour of the Jelly Belly Factory....YUM...I think you gain weight just from the smell inside.

We visited the Golden Gate Bridge in San Fran and headed for the beach...

At the Beach...Newport, Oregon

Oh what do you do at the Oregon Coast???
We build sandcastles...

and some just dig...


We Play Frisbee on the beach

And have sand ball wars

Some people like to be buried
Others do not...
We hook up with old friends
We watch the seals We go to the tidepools


We visit the Yaquina lighthouse
And climb the 110 stairs to the top
We put our feet in the water
And try and wait till we can go back again...
