Cannon Beach – Day 3

Checkout was at noon, but we just couldn’t leave that early on the most beautiful day we were there. After a leisurely morning and pancake breakfast, we packed up the van and headed to the day use area at the south end of town.

We walked along a lot of beach to places we’d never been before…

All that walking worked up an appetite! So we went back to the trailer to have lunch, play games and watch a movie until low tide.

Low tide meant another trip to Haystack Rock and the tidepools.

More walking meant we had to eat again! But this time we walked over to Mo’s for seafood and chowder. The service was great (complete with magic tricks) and the food was FANTASTIC! The crab was caught off-shore that day and came in only two hours earlier! YUMMY!!!
