The past two days have been awesome. Wednesday morning I started out of Washington and headed down to US 101. US 101 is the Pacific Coast Highway and is a fantastic drive. One of my first stops after getting into Oregon was Ecola National Park. The drive through the forest was beautiful and the coast was pretty breathtaking. Eventually I made it into Lincoln City, OR where I stayed for the night. Spent some time enjoying the beach at sunset.
This morning I went to Lil' Sambos for breakfast. These pancakes were amazing. Honestly. So good. I continued down the coast, stopping at Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area to see the lighthouse and the beach. This beach is home to birds (duh) and seals. Yes - that's right, seals. It was cool to see seals just chillin on the beach. Also made a stop at Devil's Churn, and other little stops here and there. Eventually I made it into Eugene, OR. Tomorrow should be awesome!
EDIT** Oh yeah, I forgot to mention I visited the Tillamook Cheese Factory. I know what you may be thinking - a cheese factory? Yes, a cheese factory. It was really cool, and the cheese was really good. I bought some. But what was even better was the ice cream. Seriously, this ice cream was by far some of the best I've ever had. I chose the Marionberry Pie flavor. Marionberry is some hybrid berry that can only be grown in a certain part of Oregon. Anyway, it was good stuff.
