Cannon Beach

Today we decided to drive to the beach instead of walk, so we packed up our RV a quickly and went to Cannon Beach. We were originally going to go back to Seaside Beach, but my dad wanted to see where they filmed the Goonies so that’s where we went.

Once we got there, however, the beach was freezing cold and it was really windy. So obviously we didn’t stay for long. We took some pictures, collected some shells, and then left.

After we got back to the campsite, we hopped on our bikes and rode back to the town. My sister and dad went to an aquarium and my mother and I went to a few stores instead.

Once we finished shopping, we got dinner at a small restaurant and then got gelato in “The Best Ice Cream Place In Oregon.” And honestly, I’m inclined to believe them. The gelato was so rich that I wasn’t even able to finish it.

After the ice cream, we walked over to the beach. There were over a hundred beach volley ball nets set up in rows all along part of the beach. We later learned it was because Oregon hosts international beach volley ball tournaments every year.

Closer to the water, there were tons of tide pools in the sand. We found all sorts of different animals in them like jellyfish, crabs, and fish. There was one particularly large crab that almost pinched my sister when she accidentally stepped on it. We also stayed to watch the sunset.
